Bug ID: 416087 Summary: You must be able to replace the standard search Product: dolphin Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: ergonomic.c...@gmail.com CC: kfm-de...@kde.org Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY Standard search Baloo, very long stands still. And users increasingly need to resort to other file search methods. Especially when it comes to hidden files or folders. Can I add the ability to replace the standard search with KFind? STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Dolphin and go to "~/". 2. Open a search and find "baloofilerc". 3. Congratulations, you did not find this file. 4. Install KFind. 5. Find "baloofilerc". 6. Congratulations, you found this file in "~/.config/baloofilerc". OBSERVED RESULT It is not possible to find hidden files and folders, or files that are not in the Baloo index. EXPECTED RESULT Make it possible to integrate KFind into the Dolphin interface. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: - macOS: - Linux/KDE Plasma: KDE neon 5.17 (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.17.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.65.0 Qt Version: 5.13.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION In fact, file indexing is only useful for KRunner. In order to be able to quickly access files. Using Baloo to find files is not a good idea. Since this greatly limits the search logic itself: - I can’t look for hidden resources. - I can not search on network resources. - If the file is not in the index, I will not find it. - If the resource is disabled in the settings for indexing, I will not be able to search in this resource. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
