Title:
Focal regression: poor discoverability for search in
+1000
Just installed Ubuntu for my mother today, and I learned her yesterday
how to install a software. We were both confused (I'm a developer and
I'm very confused about this "feature" too) about the fact that the
search bar is hidden until we type some text on the keyboard.
Today she called me
Hi Dan, I second your opinion and will also second your issue added to
the Gnome project.
As a 15+ year Ubuntu user it has always surpriosed me that in Software
the search was hidden; the only reason I open Software, is to find some
program to install.
Since I know my way, it never bothered me
@seb128: Maybe I didn't notice the search being this undiscoverable, or
maybe I was using another theme that made it more obvious
@amr: "just start typing" is not a discoverability UX hint. Users don't
randomly start typing in dialogs without inputs. MAYBE the keyboard
fanatics will try '?', but
On the front page, just start typing and searching works, you don't have
to first show the search field.
The empty space in the middle of the front page of gnome-software is bug
#1873060.

Thanks, why do you state it's a regression? The search was the same way
in previous cycles
