Search entry not associated with activities list view and Journal

[godiard]

If the user type something in the activities list view with focus in the the treeview a little entry appear at bottom/right, instead of sending the keys to the search control. The same happen in the Journal and in the ObjectChooser.

We can disable the search box, with set_enable_search(False) or probably better, use set_serch_entry

I have tried using set_search_entry, but does not work as expected. I have sent a very simple patch to sugar-devel.

I think we can do self.set_can_focus(False) in the activity list too, to prevent the listview steal focus from the query entry, because right now, we can't do nothing with the keybord in the listview (scrolling?), but I am no so sure about this.

Patch has been submitted for review and has been approved.

Testcase: 1. focus on the tree view, 2. start typing, 3. the keys should be sent to the search box, not to a new entry that appears at bottom/right.

Tested in build os5 of olpc. Works as expected, I will close this ticket now.

We no longer get the odd search dialog in OLPC 12.1.0 os8; but we do not shift focus when alphanumeric keys are used to the search dialog in the top corner either.

Filed #3557 to suggesting the offering the search dialog focus when certain keys are pressed (the Tree view intercepts some for scrolling purposes).
