GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 387357
[bme] topic searching does not support unicode / non-english chars
Last modified: 2016-09-28 16:35:26 UTC
I have topics that use accents in French, such as "électronique" (electronic), "sécurité" (security). These topics cannot be searched because of the accents. Any other topic that uses plain English characters can be searched without problems by typing the name of that topic.
Works for me.
Could there be something else than accents then? It definitely doesn't for me, as long as there is an accented letter...
Do you mean that the topic doesn't appear or that the tilde doesn't appear?. There's a bug about input methods and GtkEntry, maybe that's what you mean.
Created attachment 78929 [details] screenshot 1 everything in the topic "actualité" is displayed because I have not typed the "é" character. The next screenshot will convince you.
Created attachment 78930 [details] screenshot 2 a picture is worth 1000 words
Now I understand! I thought you were talking about the location entry (where you input urls). I'll have a look at this :)
I realize that I totally forgot to speciy that it was in the bookmark manager, sorry about that :) and thanks for looking into it!
Can't find the logic for filtering in location entry vs search entry in bme. Hints?
ephy-node-filter.c vs. ephy-location-entry.c/ephy-location-action.c.
Confirming and declaring myself as lost in action looking for the code that does this :).
I think there's no topics search anymore.
