Search box has time/size criteria 'on' by default.

Post by *Solf »

Hi,

I've been happy user of Total Commander on Windows for many years. I also enjoy TC version for Android -- and for the price of free it's downright awesome :)

However I have a bit of a problem with it on Android -- it seems that whenever I open the file search box, I have 'Not older than' and 'Size' checkboxes already checked.

This basically means that I have to uncheck them each time -- or otherwise the search results are pretty useless.

Is there a way to disable this behavior?

This is not normal - which Android version do you use?

Apologies for late reply -- I've expected to receive E-mail if a reply is posted, but somehow it didn't work.

Anyway, my phone is Lenovo a850 (in case more data could be needed: http://www.gsmarena.com/lenovo_a850-5689.php ) with a somewhat customized ROM (because the original is only in Chinese I believe).

Android version is 4.2.2

Note that out of 4 checkboxes in the search dialog two first ones are unchecked by default ('Case sensitive' and 'Unicode') and two last ones are checked ('Not older than' and 'Size').

P.S. I will try to watch this topic manually now so hopefully I will be able to respond faster.

Can you please try with beta 2? I'm now explicitly clearing the checkboxes. However, it's possible that they still get checked AFTERWARDS. Therefore please try it, and let me know whether it works correctly now, or not.

Apparently they get checked again AFTER my code unchecked them. Please try the new beta 2a which I have sent to your forum e-mail address.

I wrote a reply -- but in case it didn't reach you -- yes, the new beta fixes the issue.

If you need additional information, feel free to send some kind of debug version or whatever my way -- I can provide logs or anything (being software developer myself, I'm pretty familiar with how this stuff works).

That's great, thanks for your quick test! The new beta ignores the "combobox changed" notifications until it gets user input (tap, click or keyboard input) to the combobox.
