Hello Call me Dave

I try to help out others on the Gramps Reddit.

Interesting addons

Gramps info

New widget: interactive searchbox. Use our own interactive-search box to get it.

Introduced in Gramps 4.2.0 (mentioned on Whats New page )

  1. more efficient (binary search on sorted columns).
  2. customizable (delayed by 150ms launch of search to avoid text scrambling)

https://github.com/gramps-project/gramps/blob/master/gramps/gui/widgets/interactivesearchbox.py

Press Ctrl-F to open the searchbox on any of the list or just give the list focus (select a line) and start typing

If nothing is typed then after 5 seconds ( 5000ms ) the box goes away ( _SEARCH_DIALOG_TIMEOUT = 5000 )
