            Bug ID: 423328
           Summary: cursor position in search bar gets reset when search
                    begins
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 19.12.3
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: search
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org
          Reporter: glyphimor at gmail.com
                CC: kfm-devel at kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY

When text is entered in the search bar, about a second after typing stops
Dolphin initiates a search (without the user hitting Enter). If the user is
editing the entered text when searching is initiated, the cursor position gets
reset to the end of the line, potentially introducing editing mistakes.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1. Open Dolphin and press Ctrl-f to open the search bar
2. Enter some text, then quickly move the cursor back somewhere in the text
string

OBSERVED RESULT

When search starts, cursor position is reset to end of text

EXPECTED RESULT

When search starts, cursor position doesn't change, allowing editing to
continue

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

Linux/KDE Plasma: 
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.70.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.70.0
Qt Version: 5.14.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

This doesn't happen in KRunner search -- maybe b/c it searches instantly when
each character is entered? Whereas Dolphin seems to wait about a second before
searching.
