Title: SearchFinished signal for Places API Status in LibUnity: Fix Released Status in Unity: Fix Released Status in Unity Foundations: Fix Released Status in Unity Applications Lens: Fix Released Status in Unity Files Lens: Fix Released Status in “libunity” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “unity-place-applications” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “unity-place-files” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: It will be mighty useful for the shell to have some kind of indication for when the a search has finished on the place daemons. Use cases include: - Spinning the spinner until search has completed - Showing "no results" in globla search once all the places have told me theres no results - Once search is completed, expanding groups to fill up the available space I propose to add a new signal to the DBus API (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity/Places): /* Optionally emitted by a place entry once it has completed all operations for * a SetSearch, SetGlobalSearch, or SetActiveSection request and fully updated * the result model(s) accordingly. Places are not required to emit this signal * and the Unity shell must assume that they do */ signal com.canonical.Unity.PlaceEntry.SearchFinished (in u section, in s search, in a{ss} hints) Then add some nice API for this in libunity and wire it up in the place daemons To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/libunity/+bug/739311/+subscriptions -- 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
