YES there're various bug reports about something like this, and they all have FIX RELEASED status.
this is not fixed! the behavior is very unpredictable right now in 12.04
if I press Super key, default dash shows a mixed result with applications being first, press enter, the first application will not launch.
DO NOT EXIT DASH YET
press Super+a, will switch to Apps lens, now press enter, vola, Gedit (in my case) opens. BUT, if you go to Super+a directly (without going to dash home page first), the first application will not launch. this happens with other default lenses as well (file/music/video), and no visual cue to tell me if the first result is selected or not.
press super key to open dash, type "wr", first result will be libreoffice writer (still no visual indication it's selected), press enter to launch
press super key again, "wr" is already in the text field, press enter, nothing happens.
experted behavior: like gnome-shell, the first result is always selected, and always opens when enter is pressed. also, please make the selected background and animation the same one as unity-2d. |
Steps to reproduce:
1.1 Press Super key, by default the home lens shows a mixed results of recently used applications, file and folders. Pressing Enter without performing any search does not launch the first application shown in the dash.
1.2 Without exiting the dash (from the previous step), press Super + a to enter the application lens. Pressing Enter will launch the first application.
2. If however, you proceed directly to the application lens and press enter, the first application is not launched. This behavior is also applicable to other lenses.
3.1 Press Super and type a search term and then press enter, the first search result is launched.
3.2 Press Super again, where the previously entered search term is shown and press enter, the first search result is not launched this time.
What is expected:
like gnome-shell, the first result is always selected, and always opens when enter is pressed. also, please make the selected background and animation the same one as unity-2d. |
