That example was my home directory, and all the files were either in my home directory or a subfolder.
Attached is another example from within the root directory a python project 'zprocess', searching for 'py'. Here is the result of the find command (excluding hidden files and folders): zprocess $ find . -not -path '*/\.*' -name '*py*' | sort ./doc/conf.py ./run_tests.py ./setup.py ./tests/output_redirection.py ./tests/tests.py ./zprocess/clientserver.py ./zprocess/examples/example_client.py ./zprocess/examples/example_server.py ./zprocess/examples/processclass_example.py ./zprocess/__init__.py ./zprocess/locking/__init__.py ./zprocess/locking/__main__.py ./zprocess/process_class_wrapper.py ./zprocess/process_tree.py ./zprocess/remote/__main__.py ./zprocess/security.py ./zprocess/utils.py ./zprocess/zlog/__init__.py ./zprocess/zlog/__main__.py As far as I can tell, it is performing search as if 'search in subfolders' option was set to 'On this computer only', even though the preferences interface shows it set to 'never'. If I search a remote location it appears to correctly limit search to the current directory. ** Attachment added: "Screenshot" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1767027/+attachment/5138287/+files/nautilus_bug_2.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1767027 Title: Search current folder only in nautilus 3.26.3 doesn't work (Ubuntu 18.04) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1767027/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
