I think that is a good idea. If not that, at least give us the option of tweaking things. For me, Firefox is the first option I get. Why is it different for you? Who knows? If I type sleep (looking for the go to sleep command) it doesnāt appear until the 4th item on the list. Even though I use that command every day, it never gets closer to the top. I would at least like to go in there and force it to the top.
Either this or a more automatic way of ālearningā the usersā habits. E.g. counting how often the user selects certain categories and prioritize them before others.
In general i agree that for me, searches without a keyword should always have the applications on top. Thatās the main reason why i have deactivated many modules that interfered with that too often.
+1 from me. Iād say that itād be awesome to have a manual priority override in the system settings; having written a KRunner plugin before, I know that plugins are allowed to set the priority of their contents; however, it should be fairly obvious that applications come before documents for most people IMO.
We currently have code in place that puts often launched results higher. Having the same for categories seems reasonable. I currently work on unifying the different models we have for the KRunner sorting.
Once that is done, we have a central place to implement such features that gets used by KRunner and kicker/kickoff.
I would prefere it if the name is fully fitting.
If not the document and afterwards the folder should be shown.
Assumption - if I type the full correct name (first letters), probably will start the application. If not it can be a similar name from document, folder or a search result
Iād say that I am more than halfway done implementing a feature to allow for a custom reordering of runners. I will try to finish it in the next two weeks.
