           Summary: The search function only searches in vocabulary of the
                    currently chosen language
           Product: kvoctrain
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: peter peterandlinda com
        ReportedBy: marc_heyvaert yahoo com


Version:           0.8.1 (using KDE KDE 3.2.1)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

In the handbook there is the following description for the search function \
(search box on the toolbar):

If you start typing an expression in this field, KVocTrain will search the \
next best match after each key. The cursor in the vocabulary is then moved \
to this location.

This works as it should do, but only in the currently chosen language. When \
you want to search a word or expression it is cumbersome to click into the \
'right' column first. And as it is a 'smart' search function, it is not \
necessary. Take the word 'chaise'(french) and 'cheese' (english of course). \
When I start typing 'che' and kvoctrain searches in both vocabularies it \
will find cheese. Now if I am inadvertantly in the Frenc column, it will \
find 'chaise' (after pressing 'ch') and stay there because there is no word \
with 'che' so no better match....)

If you have selected a cell in the first two columns (lesson and \
active/non-active) no search is undertaken and there is no error message.

It is also confusing to see the 'black line' around the selected cell \
disappear once you click the search box, so there is no way for the user to \
tell what language (if any) is going to be searched...

So my wish is to extend the search function to all words and expressions in \
the vocabulary, irrespective of language.

Marc
