Seems as if this was partially fixed in disco, but when searching for a name with "firstname lastname", entering the space doesn't allow me to continue to search, but jumps into the first folder when "firstname" matches.
Desired result should be that entering a space allows me to continue to search for "lastname", and only hitting Enter would enter the directory. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to gtk+3.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1592177 Title: Focus drops from search input in GtkFileChooserDialog after first character, which stops searching (broken behaviour) Status in GTK+: Expired Status in Ubuntu GNOME: New Status in gtk+3.0 package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: * Impact The focus gets removed from the search entry widget in the fileselector while typing which makes it difficult to use * Test case Steps: 1. Open Gedit 2. Choose Open -> Other Documents... to open a GtkFileChooserDialog 3. Press on the search button next to Open 4. Type what you are searching for Expected behaviour: Focus remains in the search input until I finish typing then results come up What happens instead: Searching stops after I enter the first characters because focus is lost from the search input * Regression potential The change is desactivating/reactivating typeahead in the gtk fileselector, check that this feature keeps working as it should (keyboard navigate by typing the first chars of a file/folder, that should move the focus to the first matching item and allows to navigate by hitting enter) ------------------------------------ I have noticed that after upgrading to GNOME 3.20 on Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 that the built-in search functionality is almost impossible to use in the GTK file chooser (though it is the same one that allows you to save files as well as choose them). So if one types something into the search, after they have typed the first letter it will immediately select the top search result meaning one has to re-select the search box, this happens for every letter so searching for a long string becomes very annoying. If one carries on typing once it has selected the top result and unselected the search box it will start searching in the other search which only looks at results.
