Now only two runners have a minimum character count before returning any results: 1. Calculator, since you can't have a mathematical expression with only one character. 2. Baloo/file search, since these queries are a bit heavy and a search through all your files for a single Latin character will definitely not return any sane results. So with these changes, you'll now see most search results start to appear after the first character typed, and then files will start to appear after the second one. This doesn't *perfectly* fix the bug in that one runner's worth of non-mathematical results will still appear later. However it's only two characters. I doubt anyone is really getting good results from one-character file searches anyway, at least with Latin languages. On that subject, a further enhancement I plan to work on is to make the universal minimum character count 2 for Latin characters and 1 for CJK languages, since their characters are more information-dense, so a single character search makes sense. This will make all runners behave consistently and start returning the same set of results at the same time (except for Calculator when using CJK languages for other things, where it doesn't mathematically make sense to do anything for a single character). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
