In Spanish, file names can have vowels with accent mark, like "áéíóú" or "ÁÉÍÓÚ". To obtain this accented vowels, user must type the "accent" (') key and then the wovel. On quick search mode (typing any character to search quickly on the active panel), Krusader let me type any of those characters in the very first place, but no one more. That's to say I can type: "á" but not "áá" or "aá". So, if I try to search "atmósfera" krusader will try to look "atmsfera". I wish you understood my explanation. Thank you
I can confirm it too and will work on it. But a good solution is complicated
Well, I will try to simplify a possible fix. "Quick search" functionality doesn't distinguish between uppercase and lowercase letters. Accent mark is a pronunciation difference so, for Quick Search, it should let introduce "á" (or not let do it) but in any case must show any "a", "A", "á" or "Á". The principal problem nowadays is that "Quick search" only show files that match exactly the vocal typed. "Quick search" should work like Dolphin "search" function. I wish this could simplify to find a solution. Thank you
>"Quick search" should work like Dolphin "search" function. It doesn't work for me in Dolphin: a directory called "test_á" is not found with the search string "test_a". Not with filter bar or with "Find" But back to the actual problem: the list view is focused and not the search field line you're typing in. This is for seeing the current item for navigating inside the file view. But filtering key events is tricky now. Writing a letter with accent is not a QKeyPressEvent but a QInputMethodEvent. I would be better to focus the correct widget and find a way to always show current item marker. Oh, and a quick workaround: before you want to type the accent, click into the search field with the mouse to focus it. It will work this way.
Created attachment 103742 [details] attachment-16939-0.html I tried with Dolphin new searches and results are inconsistent!!!! I need to test more before tell something more, but in Dolphin case I guess is related with NFS mounted folders. Your workaround works (good trick) but need to "click" on each accented vowel, doing he experiencie not so "Quick".
