You have been subscribed to a public bug: The idea is so that users can turn off *automatic* inclusion of online results when remote search is enabled but still allow online search to performed manully with keyword search (eg info:weather in some place).
As of now, the big switch button in Privacy lets you to enable remote search and pull online results automatically as you search or disable remote search completely when it's turned off so you dont get online results at all. I think it would be desireable if there is another switch to toggle the automatic inclusion of online search results in dash. I believe some of users such as myself love the idea of being able to do online search in dash but not when results from local search are mixed together with online results as the current behaviour of dash home. TL;DR - Add switch button to disable automatic inclusion of online search in dash home but still allow remote search with keyword ** Affects: unity Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed ** Affects: unity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed -- Switch button to toggle automatic inclusion of online search results https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1262014 You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~dx-packages Post to : dx-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~dx-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
