Description Karl Ove Hufthammer 2015-10-23 06:17:58 UTC
The search field in time zones dialogue in digital clock is missing a ‘Clear’ button. It should have one.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Right-click on the digital clock, and choose to configure it.
2. Select the time zone category.
3. Write something in the search field.


Actual Results:  
No ‘clear’ icon on the right of the search field appears.

Expected Results:  
A ‘clear’ icon on the right of the search field should appear.

Note that in the similar KCM time zones settings (*also* available when right-clicking on the digital clock, but a different menu item), a ‘clear’ icon does appear when you write in the search field.

I am going to suggest that this goes on the wishlist, as it is not directly a bug but a feature request. Thank you!

No, this is actually a bug, as search fields in KDE applications always have a clear button.
Comment 3 Kai Uwe Broulik 2015-12-27 17:15:25 UTC
Unfortunately QtQuick.Controls TextField has no API to add buttons, so this won't be trivial.

In Plasma text fields (like KRunner) we have a custom style and can do whatever we want but in config dialogs where the native style is used, this is hard, if not impossible; at least not without using private API prone to break between releases.

[applets/digital-clock] Use Kirigami.SearchField for search field

That's what it was made for; might as well use it. This gives it a
"clear" button for free.
