ui bug : "Open..." search broken

Post by senatorjohn »

hello,

longtime user and glad to finally see an update to fix the crashing on save. i'm running the mas version, but i checked and this bug exists in both.

if i try to open a file for editing by typing its name in the search box of the 'Open' dialog, the search keeps switching to the "This Mac" context. even if i specify other folders, when i start typing in the search box it switches back to 'This Mac'.

i wouldn't really care, except it's also not finding the files nor showing any sign of trying/thinking about it. the only way i can open files is to navigate directly to them and open from there.

please help.

thanks
TJ

This is controlled by the system, not by the individual applications. Try with Preview, Safari, etc, they all behave in the same way... If you believe that this is not desired behaviour (and I would tend to agree with you on that), I would encourage you to file a bug report with Apple at <https://bugreport.apple.com/>. Regards,

Martin
