[Tracker] Searching with name parts & sorting in result list



Hi,

since it isn't possible anymore to recursively search nfs-mounts with
the nautilus search, I discovered the desktop search as alternative. It
searches recursively through all my nfs shares, but there's a problem
with searching for parts of the name

In gnome 3.16 I could find a file named e.g. "documents" by giving the
search term e.g. "men doc" This still works in nautilus for local
files.

In the desktop search application I need to know exact name parts like
e.g. "docu" or "ments" as search pattern to find the file

Is there any way to change this behavior of the desktop search in a
way that I can find files without exactly knowing whole parts of the
file name?

I also cannot sort the search results by name or date. Neither in
nautilus nor in the desktop search application. This worked previously
in nautilus. I read that this feature has been dropped there
intentionally.

Is there any chance to get the sort feature back in the nautilus search
or get it as an option in the desktop search application?

Thank You!
