SUMMARY It is not obvious which filter tabs displayed in a Dolphin search are active. It may be that they are not even recognised as providing choices. When clicking on the "search" icon or pressing Ctrl-F, Dolphin provides a search input box. Under this there are options for "Filename", "Content", "From Here" and "Your Files". When searching for, for example, a tag (by typing tag:mytag in the search box) you may get no results as you have the "Filename" filter selected. If you switch to "Content" you then see the results. STEPS TO REPRODUCE: Using the example of searching for a tag, create a "File" under Documents and give it a tag "mytag". Make sure baloo is seeing it with "baloosearch tags:mytag" Do the same search in Dolphin, Ctrl-F to open a search box and type "tags:mytag" OBSERVED RESULTS You may get no results/an empty panel You need to press the 'Content' button to reveal the results. EXPECTED RESULTS Sufficient visual hints to recognise the "Filename" and "Content" (and indeed the "From Here" and "Your Files") are filters, that you can recognise which are selected and that you can click on them to change options SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Neon Testing Dolphin : 20.12.0 Plasma : 5.20.4 Frameworks : 5.78.0 Qt : 5.15.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION If you don't know, it's not clear that "Filename" and "Content" are buttons. Even if you do, it's not necessarily clear whether a "darker" background denotes the button is pressed or it is "not selected" tab (as a tab might be presented in a browser) A possible way of making it clearer is presenting the options as if they were browser tabs
