Description Kai Uwe Broulik 2010-11-20 16:26:28 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

(KDE 4.6 trunk by 2010-11-18)

In KDE 4.6 there is this new nice search bar that seems to replace Kfind (at least it opens by default when pressing Ctrl-F). I have Nepomuk disabled and it still searches. But I don‘t find a way of cancelling the search progress because often it spits out many many files I don‘t care about. So I just want to cancel when I accidently see the file(s) I am looking for.
There is a progress bar (or a spinning bar) that states Dolphin is searching for something but no way to cancel that. The X on the top left corner of the window closes the search altogether.

Reproducible: Always

Thanks for the suggestion, I just have provided a fix for this. However currently a crash in kdelibs occurs when cancelling the searching. I've provided a related bug-report at https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=257431
