Created attachment 164676 [details] Comparison of Albums search and People search I'd like a delete/erase button (⌫) at the end of the People search field, like the button that the Albums and Tags search fields currently have. Comparison screenshot is attached. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Select Albums view and type something in the "Search..." field at the lower left of the UI. There is a ⌫ button at the right end of the field to clear what you have typed. 2. Select People view and type something in the "Search..." field at the lower left of the UI. No such button appears.

The clear button is present, because the People sidebar is a little wider, it is in a scroll view. You either need to make the sidebar wider, or drag the bottom horizontal scroll bar to the right to see the clear button. Maik
Aha, thank you Maik, I missed that. In that case, I'll change my wishlist item to be that either: (a) the People search bar and other UI elements such as the face-scanning Workflow tab below it could reflow/resize to fit the narrow space, or (b) the sidebar's enforced minimum width could be wide enough to prevent this horizontal scrolling of the UI elements and consequent hiding of buttons such as the 🛟 Help button at the right edge of that Workflow tab.
Instead of this bug, I opened bug 479417 as a clearer wishlist item. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 479417 ***
