Title:
search is done on the left column rather than the folder contents
Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
New
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open a Nautilus window
2. On the left column, click on a disk on the top-left, under "Devices". The
contents of the disk are shown on the right
3. Start typing
Expected: search should be done in the contents of the directory, on the right
Observed: search is done within the left column.
Additionally:
4. Click inside the window on the right, where the contents are being
displayed, but click on the empty part, not on a particular item
5. Start typing
- Expected: at least NOW, the contents should be searched
- Observed: search is STILL done within the left column, until you click some
file.
Searching the left column is mostly useless and I wonder whether one
may _ever_ want to search the left column; however, it's just one more
possibility, so why not.
However, when you have clicked on a disk unit and the contents have been
displayed, focus, or whatever determines the default place where search will
occur when typing, should definitely be on the contents on the right by
default.
Also, clicking within one of the two areas should be enough to switch on
which one search will be done, it should not be necessary to select a
particular item so change focus.
