SUMMARY The portal-based "open with" dialog does not search all apps unless I tell it to. This is annoying, if I e.g. want to open something in "okteta", I type "Okteta" and it finds nothing because it only filters the visible list of apps. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. "Open with" 2. Type "Okteta" OBSERVED RESULT "No matches" EXPECTED RESULT "Okteta" is displayed SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: git master as of 2023-01-05
Yeah, maybe we can automatically show all apps if nothing matches.

Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. appchooserdialog: show all apps while searching When you search, it's probably because what you want isn't visible among the small set of filtered apps. In this case, if we don't search through everything, it's annoying. So let's automatically show all apps when the user starts searching so it searches through all of them.

Thanks for the revering back to the old "Open With.." dialog, I really didn't like the new one with huge icons and other issues: 1. https://lists.debian.org/debian-kde/2023/02/msg00023.html 2. https://lists.debian.org/debian-kde/2023/02/msg00028.html Operating System: Debian GNU/Linux 12 KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.103.0 Qt Version: 5.15.8 Kernel Version: 6.1.0-9-amd64 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11
