(Updated July 29, 2015, 8:57 a.m.)


Status
------

This change has been marked as submitted.


Review request for Plasma, KDE Usability and Vishesh Handa.


Changes
-------

Submitted with commit 2d2a79390d8bafeda8dc1ce30fd4bc40eafaea57 by Kai Uwe Broulik to \
branch master.


Bugs: 335731
    https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=335731


Repository: plasma-workspace


Description
-------

This turns KRunner's TextField into an editable ComboBox to provide a history.

When a result is invoked, the query string is prepended to the history, query strings \
are only added once. ComboBox provides letter-by-letter auto completion.


Diffs
-----

  krunner/view.h 45f4d28 
  krunner/view.cpp 208c88c 
  lookandfeel/contents/runcommand/RunCommand.qml 4c6eb30 

Diff: https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/123888/diff/


Testing
-------

Somehow I have a feeling it doesn't always save the history or nukes it at times. It \
also has some shortcomings due to ComboBox:

1.) You cannot use the arrow keys to cycle between entries (when the popup's not \
opened) because arrow keys navigate through results 2.) forceActiveFocus() on the \
ComboBox will not activate the embedded TextField - when you had opened the popup \
there's a slight chance the input field won't get focussed I'll prepare a Qt patch \
for this. 3.) Before Qt 5.4.2 (not sure if my patch ended up in 5.4.1) pressing space \
in the edit combobox will open the popup, not insert a space (nasty show stopper) 4.) \
Plasma's edtiable ComboBox looks a bit strange imho 5.) Plasma's editable ComboBox \
doesn't support clearButtonShown 6.) Plasma's ComboBox has strange bullets and \
margins in it, that's probably a bug in Plasma Style (need to look what Desktop style \
does differently from us) 7.) ComboBox doesn't have a cursorPosition, I'll prepare a \
Qt patch for this.
