Created attachment 170050 [details] Indexing makes locations UI jumps up and down When indexing is running, the UI shows recent indexed filenames which can have different lengths (1 or more lines), this causes Locations UI below it to jump up and down, which makes it hard to click on its buttons to add or remove folders. See attached video for more info.
Heh yeah. Maybe we should move the indexing status to below the view in a pseudo status bar thingy.

Git commit a35ab1bb9bacbd4ee341ef8a50f8ee783792b3cc by Nate Graham. Committed on 28/06/2024 at 15:27. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. kcms/baloo: move status to footer The status information includes the filename, which is of variable length. Unless this is on the very bottom of the page, it'll cause all the UI elements below it to jump around as it changes; not ideal. Move it to the footer, where it assumes the comfortable and common role of a status bar.
