Some observations 1. When I select Radio source, grey text in the search box shows "Search your internet radio stations" - this is "accurate" 2. When I select my music library, grey text in search box shows "Search all fields" - this is misleading 3. Confirmed the search box is cleared when I switch music source
I think the "bug" here is the misleading "search all fields text". I also agree there is a usability improvement that could be made to persist the text in the search box. ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: New => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to rhythmbox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/579519 Title: Allow search strings to persist when music source is switched Status in One Hundred Papercuts: Confirmed Status in The Rhythmbox Music Management Application: New Status in “rhythmbox” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: When using Rhythmbox I use a variety of "music sources" - local library, shared podcast directory, daap streamed music. Due to the size of these music sources - I use the search box extensively. The problem is the search only works if you have selected the music source. If I'm in the "wrong" music source - the search fails. If I then click in the correct music source - the search string disappears! Either allow the search string to persist across different music sources, or better still allow the search option to search all ALL music sources To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/579519/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
