Tested on Windows 10, works fine there as well. One persisting issue without touching the view model filter is that the pattern column is also searched. If I were to modify that class then I'd also add multiple word filter but I'm unsure if that would break something else. This could be merged as-is after it passes quality checks and the multi word filter could be another PR in the future. |
Fixes keepassxreboot#429 If the global autotype shortcut is triggered on a window, but no applicable match can be found, populate the AutoTypeSelectDialog with all available entry-sequence pairs. The user can then filter this list with the filter box implemented in keepassxreboot#2955 to narrow down the matches and select with arrow keys and enter or mouse.

Can someone please explain how this works, I don't get the need for this? As an example I have a lot of Auto-Type matches for the same window, but the usernames are all different, and I don't see how someone can have several accounts with everything the same, that they are confused and need to do a search... Hmm |

I feel obligated to answer this since I implemented this feature for myself. I manage AWS accounts in the tens at work and the amount is only going to increase. All of the accounts have a name of "AWS" and their auto-type sequence matches the generic AWS login page. Groups have the name of the customer in question. There is no way to make the auto-type sequence unique. Compared to going through the list manually searching for the specific entry I need against typing the first few letters of the account/customer name and hitting return is much more convenient and less error prone. When I implemented this feature I specifically wanted to keep the arrow keys functioning like before so it doesn't break the workflow of anyone not using the new search field. |

This is also the entry point to a feature where you can search your whole database for an Auto-Type entry if there is none to your liking in the dialog. |
|
@hifi so is the Title or Username you are talking about called AWS? The I just assumed if the Title were organized in a specific way, then there would be no need for this... Hmm |
When you have a lot of Auto-Type matches for the same window title, some quick search is helpful.
The input field has default focus and up/down arrow keys are captured which move the selection in the list. To make this a bit better, it would work with multiple words split into separate filters that narrow down the list.
Note: This does not yet pass the code quality requirements. The existing view model filter is pulled with a
qobject_cast<>()which may be a bit hacky.Type of change
