See bug 188032 for an ongoing discussion. In case if this behavior
is really not wanted by users (the feedback on bugs.kde.org will
show), the review-request
https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/104915/ should be merged too
(after adjusting some parts of the code).
Per default Dolphin remembers the view-properties for each search-URL
individually. However when being in the search-mode, where the
search-URL is different each time by definition, it should also
be possible for the user to adjust the view-properties. The DolphinView
is not aware about any "search-mode", so an interface has been added
to provide a "context" for storing the view-properties. The context
will be adjusted by the DolphinViewContainer in case if the search-mode
is active.
Dolphin 2.1 uses "text" instead of "name" as default-role. Provide
backward compatibility with older .directory files and assure
that they get updated.
Follow the suggestion from Vishesh Handa and copy the ResourceWatcher
code from kde-runtime instead of creating a dependency. This will of
course get removed again as soon as Nepomuk's resource watcher will
get a public API.
Until now it was only possible to adjust the view-properties for
searching in general. Now the view-properties can be adjusted
dependent on the query (e.g. images, documents, ...).
Related changes:
- Animate changed items for the details-view in case it is not expandable
- Remove the hardcoded "isHidden"-code in KStandardItemListWidget and
allow derived widgets to define themselves what means "hidden" within
their context.
The current code needs a lot of bugfixing, but lets make this in smaller
steps during the next days...
- Determine group of a new entry dependent from the protocol
- Allow panels to forward error-messages to the view-container
(also applied to Folders Panel)
Implement adding, editing and removing of entries. Note that the
result currently is still not stored in bookmarks.xml (this needs
to wait until the hiding is implemented in the model).
Some plugins are not prepared for this and might crash. Although
the additional check in VersionControlObserver::actions() should not
be necessary because of the fix in DolphinView, it is left here
to catch potential other cases where a null-item might get passed
accidently.
Thanks to Ilya for initially patching the Box-plugin which gave
a hint whats going wrong.
BUG: 294336
FIXED-IN: 4.9.0
When changing the sort-column the sort order should always be reset
to 'ascending' to by consistent with the QListView behavior.
BUG: 298830
FIXED-IN: 4.9.0
This fixes two problems:
1. KItemListKeyboardSearchManger can cancel the current search when a
new folder is opened (note that this action removes the current item
from the view).
2. The view can underline the new current item (which is the item that
used to be below the removed item). Note that this did not work
before because the view did not receive a currentChanged() signal in
this case and therefore did not update the "current item" status of
the new current item.

(cherry picked from commit 68ce395a19)
This patch restores the Dolphin 1.x behaviour that Esc clears the
selection (Dolphin 2.0 did not have an easy way to clear the selection
using the keyboard so far). Moreover, Esc now also cancels the current
keyboard search. This fixes the problem that the only way to cancel the
search is to wait until the timeout has expired.
CCBUG: 298742
CCBUG: 297458
(cherry picked from commit d3b1312d3e)
It turned out that the longer timeout, introduced recently in
02eab49b2d, not only made multi-letter
keyboard searches easier, but also had some unwanted side effects. I
hope that 1 second, which is between the previous value of 5 seconds and
the pre-KDE 4.8.2 value of 0.4 seconds, is a compromise which will fit
most users' needs.
We will try to improve the situation further in future releases by
providing visual feedback about the keyboard search, but such a change
would not be suitable for a bug-fix release.
(cherry picked from commit d8732a59d3)
The places-entries for searching revealed some serious issues in
combination with the search-panel. Move the filtering away from
QDockWidget and bring it back below the search-bar.
