Filter in popup menu sometimes doesn't work properly

[merav82]

Hi,
I'm new with Orange Data Mining.
I tried to find an answer in the internet, but it didn't work for me..

I have 3.36.2 version.
I'm trying to add the "feature constructor" widget to my project but I don't have this widget. How can I add this one to my application?

What's wrong?

How can we reproduce the problem?

What's your environment?

• Operating system:
• Orange version:
• How you installed Orange:

The widget has been renamed to Formula.

But if you add widgets through the pop-up menu and start typing feature con, it will suggest the (ex-)Feature Constructor, just under the new name.

However: you discovered a bug in the pop-up's filtering. Typing fea should also show the widget, but one has to type at least feature c. I'm thus renaming the issue, moving it to the corresponding repository and tagging it as a bug. Thanks!

I cannot duplicate this.

I could reliably duplicate it until I added some prints for debugging. Now I can't, even after removing them.

search_filter_query_helper looks OK, too. I'd keep this open - the bug is real and maybe somebody will have an idea.

Another data points: works for me (shows up when I type "fea").
