Public bug reported:
Description: Ubuntu 11.10
Release: 11.10
nautilus:
Installed: 1:3.2.1-0ubuntu3.1
Candidate: 1:3.2.1-0ubuntu3.1
Expected behaviour:
- Open the directory that contains files with names starting with a similar
character/string in nautilus. Example: abc, file1, file2, file3, xyz.
- To select “file3” using typeahead you can either type explicit, unequivocal
string (“file3” in this case, as the digit distinguishes file in this
directory) or type common part and USE SCROLL TO NAVIGATE THROUGH THE RESULTS
(in this case, e.g. “f”, which makes you able to scroll from “file1” to
“file3”; “abc” and “xyz” are excluded as they don’t match) -- each scroll down
selects next available item, each scroll up selects every previous item; I do
not know how to say it more clearly.
Actual behaviour:
- Open the directory that contains files with names starting with a similar
character/string in nautilus. Example: abc, file1, file2, file3, xyz.
- Type in “f”.
- Scrolling through the results doesn’t work UNLESS you place mouse pointer
over the typeahead box. This is not very useful as this box is small and
located in a corner.
I remember the abovementioned expected behaviour to be an actual
behaviour of 9.10 and classic GNOME, from which I turned to oneiric few
weeks ago.
