Today a friend told me about this behaviour, and after a quick test I agreed with him about considering it a bug, so I filed https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/VWR-23627
I hope the description is clear enough: corrections here, in private, or by directly editing the report are welcome. * Friends search/filter should take into account Usernames as well, not Display names only As a user, I'd like to be able to find someone who is in my Friends by both her username or her Display Name. Right now, I can only look up for friends by their Display Names. As soon as they change their Display Name, I'm not able anymore to find them - until I know and learn/remember her new Display Name. Currently the Friends list provides me with data about both names (Display Names are shown by default; just hover to see Usernames). Since this information is already there, the filtering system should use this information, and allow me to find someone in my Friends list when I search for her Username. Example: * my friend has Username = "john.doe" and Display Name = "John Doe" * I search for him in my Friends list by writing "John", or "Doe" * my friend changes his Display Name into "Gianni Rossi". This is not meant to alter the relationship in any way * if I look for "John", "Doe", "John Doe", or "john.doe" I can't find my friend anymore Opensource Obscure _______________________________________________ Policies and (un)subscribe information available here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/OpenSource-Dev Please read the policies before posting to keep unmoderated posting privileges
