Description Eric Butler 2004-09-06 23:26:40 UTC
I would find an option to to disable auto-completion and the "known
applications" list in "Run Application" dialog very useful, as I dislike this
feature.

Thanks.

See /apps/panel/profiles/default/general/enable_program_list if you want to
disable the "known applications" list.

As for auto-completion, we might add a gconf key too. I'm not too fond of adding
lots of gconf keys, but it might be necessary if we want better performance.
Comment 2 Morten Welinder 2005-02-02 14:18:23 UTC
This is crazy.

People dislike it because it has a terrible implementation that gets in the way.
I solved that over in bug 133243 the better part of a year ago.
Comment 3 Eric Butler 2005-02-03 16:40:47 UTC
Sometimes I just like being able to type out the command without other things
poping up. I will, however, test out the new implementation in (the just
resolved)  bug 133243, but I still wouldn't be suprised if other people would
find a gconf key that disables this handy at times (doesn't need a GUI option).

This has been promoted to a "love task" ;-) See http://live.gnome.org/GnomePanel
