Description Matt Reid 2013-12-13 16:42:12 UTC
Description of problem:
Once you've successfully logged in, and entered a search term, the search bar doesn't follow the GNOME conventions. Other search bars you find in GNOME applications have a delete icon in the right edge of the search bar, giving you a quick way to clear the search term. That's missing in RH Access.

There's also a decoy hoverstate on the search icon embedded in the search bar. When you mouse over the icon, it turns to a darker color and the cursor itself changes from an I-beam for text entry, back to the normal mouse cursor, seemingly indicating that you can click it. Clicking it doesn't appear to actually do anything, and the only way I've gotten it to search is by hitting enter after typing in a search string or clicking on a suggestion. If you open up the Settings panel in GNOME, there's a search bar there, and that search icon doesn't falsely interact with the mouse cursor, it stays as an I-beam for text entry.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
redhat-access-gui-1.0.0-3.el7

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Log in to the RH Access GUI
2. Enter a search term
3. Mouse over the search icon

Actual results:
No "clear" button in the search bar after entering a search term, like in other GNOME search bars, search icon appears to be interactive, but isn't

Expected results:
Behavior to match other search bars in seen in native RHEL 7 apps

Red Hat Access search term entered w/ hover state of search icon

Taking a screenshot of it lost my mouse cursor, but I'm hovering over the search icon and the icon has darkened, and the mouse cursor changed from the I-beam to a normal mouse cursor
