           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
