This is due to a applications runner implementation - requests three or more characters to search. On the other hand, the shell runner (IIRC the name) works for less characters (type 'ls' for example) If it is a bug at all, it should be filed for krunner. uhm, interesting problem.. the usual condition is >= 3 to avoid noise in the results. I am not sure if there's a clean way to solve this... *** Bug 226859 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** How to look for "Qt"? Search of KRunner is used in StartMenu (Lancelot). In Gnome 3, Windows 7 it is possible to look for programs and documents from 1 character. In KDE needs at least 3. *** Bug 315708 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 318718 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Launchy is Open-source and GPL and written in Qt, so referring to its impletation of search might help solve this problem. Launchy 's default search behavior is really nice and neat. https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=315708 made some good points. Fixed with e2ebcda23e635eaba4b96e839c05760c975661dd, no? |
