break-word;">I wrote a quick add-on for the Dolphin filter bar. It is a button \
which prevents the filter text from clearing when navigating to a different folder.
Why this might be needed:
This is an attempt to resolve the following usability conflict:
If one navigates to a different folder, the filter is automatically cleared since one \
does not want a situation where someone forgets a filter is applied and then \
doesn't understand why all the files within a folder are not appearing.(current \
behavior)
versus:
A user might want to keep a filter while navigating an arbitrary set of folders, but \
is unable to, since the filter is automatically cleared upon navigation
The implementation to try to resolve this conflict is as follows:
1. A lock filter toggle button is added to the right side of the filter bar.
2. If the lock filter button is clicked(on), then if the user navigates away from the \
current folder, the filter is not cleared. If the lock filter button is \
released(off), then the text is cleared on navigation...which is the current \
behavior. 3. A configurable shortcut is added to toggle the lock filter button, with \
the default being Ctrl-Shift-I (since the default shortcut for hiding and showing the \
filter bar is Ctrl-I.) 4. If the user toggles the lock filter button to released \
(off), then the text in the filter also clears. The assumption here is that if the \
user no longer wants the text to be locked, he probably also wants to clear the text. \
5. When the filter bar is hidden, then the lock filter button is released. The next \
time the filter bar is shown, the lock filter button will be in the released(off) \
position and the filter text will have been cleared. 6. At application startup, the \
lock filter button is always off, and the filter bar text cleared.
This also fixes a current bug in dolphin where one is unable to toggle the visibility \
of the filter bar using the tool bar filter button, or by using the assigned hot key.
Note... I think it is 'patch -p2' from the "dolphin" directory \
(above src directory ) to apply the patch</pre> </td>
