Description Christian Pontesegger CLA 2014-08-13 04:42:46 EDT
When clicking on "Show more" the image browser will display the same set of images from the same plugins all the time.

Expected behavior: advance through the plugins and show new images
Comment 1 Vikas Chandra CLA 2014-08-13 09:01:27 EDT
I can recreate this behavior
Comment 2 Curtis Windatt CLA 2014-08-13 09:53:42 EDT
Does it matter where the images are coming from? (workspace vs target)

same behavior for target and running application. Did not try with workspace

On launching with the change I get 

Warning: NLS missing message: ImageBrowserView_ShowMore in: org.eclipse.pde.internal.ui.pderesources

	
public static String ImageBrowserView_ShowMore; 

should be removed.

Looks like the assessment in the gerrit patch is correct. 

According to me, it will be good to remove this button (However I'll double check today if we can do anything better than removing the button).

Changed the bug's description and committed the patch.

Thanks Alena

Strange decision: instead of fixing its functionality we remove the button? So we now we can only see the first set of images. How would a user advance to further images?

Without that functionality the plugin gets almost useless

I added functionality of filtering, so instead of scrolling pages you can filter which reduces number of images and let you find what you actually is looking for

This button never meant to do pagination, if we do add pagination it will be 
a proper page controls (i.e. next page/previous page)

Fair enough. Real pagination would be fine, so I created bug 481613.
