Description Pavel Matveev CLA 2014-06-30 16:04:16 EDT
I'm trying find WorkbenchMessages.FilteredTree_FilterMessage in my tree, but filter shown all items. In my case initial message is "search" but i can't find items "search" in my tree:(

1. Run Eclipse
2. Open Preferences (Main menu: Window->Preferences)
3. Type in filter field "type filter text"

Problem: all items are shown, but no one have label "type filter text"

This dialog use org.eclipse.ui.dialogs.FilteredTree for displaying preferences list

Comment 4 Pavel Matveev CLA 2014-07-13 14:49:57 EDT
FilteredTree must differ user changed value and automatically set value
Comment 5 Robert Roth CLA 2016-04-17 19:56:59 EDT
Both FilteredTree and FilteredPreferenceDialog seem to incorrectly set the "text" property on the filter control instead of the "message" property which should be used as a hint. However, the filter control getting focused by default might result in the hint disappearing (e.g. on Linux with GTK), so I guess this might be a reason why it is done this way.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
