Description Mohd Asif Ali Rizwaan 2003-11-10 22:44:40 UTC
Version:           unknown (using KDE 3.1.1)
Installed from:    Red Hat Linux 7.3
Compiler:          gcc version 2.96 20000731 (ASPLinux 7.3 2.96-113)

Dear David Faure,

I have filed report with KDE 2.2.2 and it has NOT been resolved: but stated resolved :(

to explain it further...

Reproducing bug Using: 
1.Konqueror/filemanager and 
2. Run Window (alt+f2)
having Autocompletion as "dropdown list" for both Konqeror Location bar and Run Window.

How to Reproduce:

1. create a file /tmp/rizwaan                      // touch /tmp/rizwaan 
2. after creation of file run konqueror          // remember dropdown List completion?
3. type in the Location: "/tmp/ri"                 // notice the ri (substring)
4. You can see in the dropdown list "/tmp/rizwaan" [ok] // you can select it

5. Now do ALT+F2                      // remember it has also dropdown completion
6. type in "/tmp/ri"   [NOT OK]        // you won't see /tmp/rizwaan in a list here :( 

This is what RUN window can't do. This is a bug, since in KDE 1.1.2 properly showed "/tmp/rizwaan" in run window. thank you.

EXPECTED:

ALT+F2 run window should folder/files in the filesystem like konqi location dropdown list. 

More Info:
Run window is not showing dropdownlist completion for file/folder in the filesystem, even when textcompletion is set to automatic/dropdown list. 

Hope you fix this small bug, because it comes very handy to go to specific folder by using run command. Thanks.
