--- Comment #8 from Waqar Ahmed <waqar....@gmail.com> --- > manual searching through the list of unsorted files, imho, doesn't make sense > and is harder Because this is not meant to do what you want. Quick open is not meant for browsing files. The usage should be - Open quick open - type a few letters to filter the list to get to the file you want and press enter That's it. That's all it is meant for and nothing more. There's one additional thing in there, if you have some files open, they will always be at the top of the list when quick-open opens. > In a vast project, it could be hard to orientate in paths without prefixes That I believe is not true. Here's why: You have a project in /home/user/projects/Kate with 100000 files. What gets stripped: "/home/user/projects". That is stripped for all files because it is common among them. Nothing else will be stripped. This results in reduced noise and I believe easier to read path because you have removed the redundant information. Again, this is not a file browser. The paths are useful if you have files with similar names, type "Cmake", it will show you a lot of different cmake files with different paths so that you can select the one you want. You can additionally do filtering by path if you remember the path. "add/cmk" will give you files from addons/ in kate project. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
