Confirming the fix in 3.3.3-0ubuntu1 ** Description changed:
Binary package hint: gedit My gedit sidebar shows all my open documents. When I click a document name the main frame changes to this document as expected. Then I hit Ctrl-F to find something, but that only opens the find functionality of the sidebar! This is quite annoying. I propose that either: - 1 the sidebar find field is always visible, so Ctrl+F only searches the main frame, or - 2 one can double-click a document name to give the focus to the main frame, or - 3 the focus always changes to the main frame after a document name is clicked + 1 the sidebar find field is always visible, so Ctrl+F only searches the main frame, or + 2 one can double-click a document name to give the focus to the main frame, or + 3 the focus always changes to the main frame after a document name is clicked I prefer solution 1. With 3 we would have to define a new way to focus the sidebar when it is full of document names. (e.g. by clicking its icon at the lower left). My workaround so far: I use now Ctrl+K to search the main frame (didn't know this nice function before I encountered this bug :-) ProblemType: Bug Architecture: i386 Date: Thu Jan 21 05:11:47 2010 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.10 ExecutablePath: /usr/bin/gedit InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 9.10 "Karmic Koala" - Release i386 (20091028.5) Package: gedit 2.28.0-0ubuntu2 ProcEnviron: - PATH=(custom, user) - LANG=de_CH.UTF-8 - SHELL=/bin/bash + PATH=(custom, user) + LANG=de_CH.UTF-8 + SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.31-17.54-generic SourcePackage: gedit Uname: Linux 2.6.31-17-generic i686 + + TEST CASE: + 1) Open Side panel + 2) Open several documents + 3) Click on document name from sidebar + Result: focus is changed to main frame + 4) Press Ctrl+F + + Result: Side panel search panel appears + Expected Result: Main frame search panel appears -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/510495 Title: spoiles Ctrl+F because it leaves focus in sidebar when a document name is clicked To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gedit/+bug/510495/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
