Description Dave Malcolm 2007-02-03 21:40:27 UTC

Description of problem:
Launch control-center, click on Filter and start typing "compiz"
At "com" and beyond: get "No matches found" etc

Looks like it's only searching the explicit text for the items.  It should
search inside various synonyms etc, so e.g. "compiz" should match "Desktop Effects".

Similarly:
- "wallpaper" matches nothing; it ought to match "Desktop Background"
- "accessibility" only matches "Keyboard accessibility"; it ought to also match
Assistive Technology
- "a11y" matches nothing; should match the ones above
- "software" matches nothing: should match a launcher for "Add/Remove Software"
- "browser" matches nothing: should match "Preferred Applications"
- "terminal" matches nothing: should match "Preferred Applications"
- "mail" matches nothing: should match "Preferred Applications"
etc 

Should also be "Search" not "Filter"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
control-center-2.17.90-3.fc7

Comment 1 Dave Malcolm 2007-02-03 21:43:15 UTC

"disk" matches nothing; should match "Removable Drives"
