@Adam: Still not able to reproduce. I did the following: 1) Fresh install of 14.04, fully updated, GTK 3.10.6 2) sudo apt-get build-dep nautilus && sudo apt-get install bzr 3) bzr branch lp:~daniel-wyatt/nautilus/fix-bug1164016_2 && cd fix-bug1164016_2 4) dh_autoreconf && dpkg-buildpackage -uc -b 5) sudo dpkg -i ../*.deb 6) nautilus -q 7) gsettings set org.gnome.nautilus.preferences enable-interactive-search true 8) nautilus
If I understand what you're describing, it shouldn't really be possible. isearch_start (called when you start typing a new search) calls isearch_entry_changed which unselects everything via nautilus_view_set_selection (slot->details->content_view, NULL); Can you try something similar to the above procedures and see if it's still reproducible? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1164016 Title: restore type-ahead find Status in Nautilus: Invalid Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: GNOME removed type-ahead find in Nautilus 3.6, not without controversy: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/nautilus- list/2012-August/msg00002.html Now when you type in a Nautilus window, Nautilus immediately performs a search in the current directory and all its subdirectories. I personally find this annoying. If I want to search, I'll click the search icon. Often I'm looking at a long directory listing and simply want to jump to a certain point in it, and type-ahead find works great for that. Would Ubuntu consider patching type-ahead find back in?
