You are right, the "everywhere" works fine, too.

Indeed.
When selecting Content + Everywhere, why should it matter where you start?
Good question. The "everywhere" is a lie, though, if nepomuk is used and there are folders not indexed. Even the "from here" is misleading if there is any subfolder not indexed. Using the same interface for normal file search and nepomuk search will always be a compromise, I fear.
Are you going to find the bug report or should I?
Hehe, it seems that there was a big discussion about this and I, personally, would not like to start it again: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=271600

Well I filed a new bug report on this because all of the others (there are several) sort of miss the case where nepomuk is running and you want to find content of indexed directories. https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=320629 Search Content really has THREE choices (Here/Everywhere/Indexed) but the Dolphin maintainers are resistant to putting in another Choice button (indexed locations) and instead they are forcing users to know the "Trick" of selecting any indexed directory. Until Nepomuk becomes commonly installed and used, I suspect they will not put in this choice. But until there are easy ways to use the Nepomuk indexed content search Nepomuk will not be commonly installed. So these two development groups have built themselves a catch 22. -- _____________________________________ ---This space for rent--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
