Description Jean-François Fortin Tam 2006-02-05 21:47:20 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
In spatial nautilus, when using the CTRL-F search, you cannot stop the search.
I'm not sure about browser nautilus, but I think you can't either.

As the search functionnality is quite slow, I would like to be able to stop
before things get out of hand ;)

Steps to reproduce:


Actual results:


Expected results:


Does this happen every time?

Hum this is fixed with 2.16, isn't it?
Comment 2 Sebastien Bacher 2006-09-22 13:02:48 UTC 
do you use beagle or not?
Comment 3 Jean-François Fortin Tam 2006-09-22 13:26:26 UTC 
I do not use beagle or tracker, I tried again with my edgy computer (2.16.0), there is still no option to stop the search (no button), and pressing escape on the keyboard does not stop it either.
Comment 4 Sebastien Bacher 2006-09-25 17:30:26 UTC 
Still happening with GNOME 2.16.0, updating settings according to that
Comment 5 Sebastien Bacher 2006-09-25 17:31:46 UTC 
Ubuntu bug about that: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/61807
Comment 6 Jean-François Fortin Tam 2006-11-03 16:18:56 UTC 
Just to clarify that the ubuntu bug is about the Browser Nautilus's stop button not working;

the spatial nautilus DOES NOT have a search button!
Comment 7 Jean-François Fortin Tam 2006-11-03 16:20:12 UTC 
darn. I meant *STOP* button for spatial nautilus, not search.

Yes. I suggest to change the title of this bug to clarify it, for example:

No Stop button in spatial nautilus when using the CTRL-F search
Comment 9 Jean-Philippe Fleury 2008-12-03 21:18:14 UTC 
I've done a specific bug report about the Stop button not working:

Spatial nautilus is no more, so this can be closed as OBSOLETE now.
