Sample of the dialog

I heavyly use text marks for creating hyperlink from the same and external documents. It will be very useful have the following features in the document destiny dialog:
a) Sorted by name
b) The ability to incremental type in the dialog

This will ease hypermarking dramatically

Regards

Well, if I understand correctly, the point a is the ability to have bookmarks alphabetically sorted in the Navigator. This point is a duplicate of bug 86395.

But what do you mean by b) ? Please elaborate a bit.

Best regards. JBF

Please take a look to the attached image 
If I type "fo" then the first entry "folio" will be highlighted and should be selected by hitting CR
If however I type "folio f", then "folio fiscal" will be
Also, everytime a entry is selected, the dialog is update (blinks) and the selection moves to the "Marcas de texto" node, efectively loosing the one you have previously selected

Hmmm, with a screen copy took from an English UI it would be easier to understand what you mean.

Since a) is a duplicate of Bug 86395, this bug may be about b).
But, I'm not an optimist this will be done any time soon (like years).

This would ease selecting the desired bookmark a lot

I tried. So the problem seems to be the space between two words.

Reproduced with gen and kf5 VCL, but works with gtk3.

Still in:

Interestingly, search can include a space in the Style deck of the sidebar. Could be a hint as to how to fix it.
