Pull Request Overview
This PR fixes three interconnected issues with the SearchWidget related to saved searches and the "Press Enter to search" functionality. The main problem was that saved searches weren't working properly when the "Press Enter to search" option was enabled, and the save button visibility was tied to search execution rather than text presence.
Key changes:
- Introduces immediate search execution for saved searches that bypasses timer delays and "Press Enter to search" logic
- Updates save button visibility to show whenever there's text in the search field
- Routes saved search requests through a new dedicated method instead of just setting text

This PR fixes three related issues with the SearchWidget that were introduced with the "Press Enter to search" option and 500ms search delay:
Issues Fixed
1. Saved searches don't trigger search with "Press Enter to search" enabled
When the "Press Enter to search" option is enabled, clicking a saved search would only populate the search field but not actually perform the search. Users had to manually press Enter to trigger the search.
Root cause: The
requestSearchsignal was connected directly tosetText(), which only updates the text field without triggering a search when "Press Enter to search" is enabled.2. Save search button visibility issues
The save search button (disk icon) would only appear after a search was actually performed, not when typing text in the search field. Sometimes it wouldn't appear even after pressing Enter.
Root cause: Save button visibility was tied to search execution (
startSearch()) rather than text presence in the field.3. Unnecessary 500ms delay for saved searches
When "Press Enter to search" was disabled, clicking saved searches would still apply the 500ms typing delay, making the UI feel sluggish for programmatic search triggers.
Root cause: Saved searches went through the same timer logic designed for user typing.
Solution
The fix introduces two new methods and modifies the signal routing:
performRequestedSearch(QString)- Handles saved searches with immediate execution:updateSaveButtonVisibility()- Shows save button whenever there's text:textChanged()signalModified signal connection - Routes
requestSearchto the new method:Behavior Changes
Testing
Fixes #12313.
