Screenshot of the editor dropdown
Patrik, something for you? IIRC you worked on the editor drop-down list before. IIUC, when you press CTRL+E (open the editor selection dialog) and type "L", you want to filter the entries like you typed "*L". Created attachment 272968 [details]
desired behavior
New Gerrit change created: https://git.eclipse.org/r/118488 Created attachment 272969 [details]
Wildcard is now added automatically

Will they still be first, before all "substring" matches? (In reply to Till Brychcy from comment #8) > What if I have editors open that start with "H"? > Will they still be first, before all "substring" matches? IIRC you could use the ^ regex to match the first character. This would also be consistent with the handling in PDE. Gerrit change https://git.eclipse.org/r/118488 was merged to [master].

Till, can you open a bug so that we list prefix matches before other matches? Hmmm why release this already without really thinking about it? Is this kind of change not allowed after M6? (In reply to Till Brychcy from comment #13) > Hmmm why release this already without really thinking about it? > Is this kind of change not allowed after M6? M7 is polish, so we are good. For the record, this one was reverted due to braking some related functionality - see 552144. Also, there is de-facto the same feature request in 531785 (created just 1 day after this one) which covers the Open Resource and possibly also the Open Type dialogs - all these are pretty similar in the searching features. |
