Spurious search history in Find bar
Calibre 7.26 / Linux Mint 21.
1. Open the Find bar (Ctrl + F. 2. Enter a search term. 3. Now backspace slowly through the characters. Actual result: You may find a spurious entry in the search history looking like the bottom result in the image below. Another thing is that, IMV, the automatic popup history is inconvenient; it should only popup if the user wants it to, i.e. by right clicking. |

Does not replicate for me. If that entry is in your search history presumably it was entered as a search at some point, probably accidentally.

Even if I clear the search history the strange character appears again when I backspace. I definately didn't enter it. Perhaps it's a Linux issue? To my knowledge it wasn't an issue in older versions of Calibre.
Also I agree with BetterRed, that autocomplete is more a hindrance than a help. AFAIR it didn't occur in older versions. Last edited by paperback; 03-18-2025 at 06:57 AM. |
