Problem with the search
Posted: 20 Oct 2005 16:00
Hi,
I have a small problem with the search. I use it quite frequently by hitting Ctrl-F and then just starting to type. This *should* overwrite whatever is entered in the search box (the most recent search) since the whole text is selected there, but that's not what happens here.
Ok let me explain it step by step to avoid misunderstandings. I am in a directory where I want to search for "secret" (without the quotes of course). So I hit Ctrl-F which brings up the panel at the bottom (usualy hidden here) with the search-tab selected and the focus in the "Name:" field. It contains my last search, let's say "another cup", completely selected. I start typing "secret", but instead of overwriting it appends at the end so that I get "another cupsecret". It *appears* to overwrite at first for a fraction of a second, but then the text reappears and what I typed is appended.
real strange, if you need anything more let me know
bye

). If you don't need the latter, simply uncheck it in Configuration/General.
