apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected natty running-unity ubuntu
** Description changed: Not a bug specifically, but... - It would be really nice if, when you hit Super and start typing the name - of an application you wish to open, Unity behaved more like GNOME-Do. - What I mean is that in Unity's current form, you have to type the proper - name of the application. Whereas in GNOME-Do, you can just hit a few - characters from it and it will find it for you. For example, "Synaptic - Package Manager". In Unity you have to start typing S Y N, but in GNOME- - Do you could type S M or S P or S P M, etc and it knows what you mean. - The letters don't have to be adjacent to each other in the name of the - application for GNOME-Do, but they must be in Unity. This would be a - nice little feature to have, and would make Unity that little bit more - unifying. + It would be really nice if, when you hit Super and start typing the name of an application you wish to open, Unity behaved more like GNOME-Do.
