Inconsistent local search in Preferences

Help & Support
1

Hi folks,

I think I found a weird little bug. Nothing important, but I thought you might like to know. It concerns local search boxes in the Preferences.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. open Prefs
  2. go somehwere, eg. Internet -> Updates (doesn't matter as long as it's not color-related)
  3. close Prefs
  4. re-open Prefs
  5. the Internet -> Updates page is shown
  6. goto Colors and Fonts -> DOpus Colors (without searching!)
  7. on the Colors page, enter some text in the local search box
  8. it works - so far, so good
  9. type "colors" into the global search box
  10. you stay on the Colors page
  11. local search is disabled because global search is active
  12. go somehwere else in the Prefs, eg. Internet -> Updates
  13. close Prefs
  14. re-open Prefs
  15. type "colors" into the global search box
  16. the Colors and Fonts -> Color Blending page is shown
  17. goto Colors and Fonts -> DOpus Colors
  18. the local search box is enabled (which it shouldn't), but doesn't work

I tried this (with the latest Beta 13.5.5) several times with consistent results.

Thanks, we've fixed that for 13.6.1 (first beta after 13.6).
