Title: Being able to search in Add Activity menu
Post by: gerben on August 03, 2026, 04:45:05 PM
Hi all,

It would be great and very useful to be able to search in the teacher en student lists in the Add Activity panel. Some work requires a great amount of scrolling and this would lighten the load!

Hello, gerben, and welcome to the forum!

I'll check if it is possible, but not right now. Maybe in approximately 1 hour.

Do you have knowledge with QListWidget in Qt? Are you a C++ programmer? How would you suggest a search in the list widgets?

I just began doing the filter for teachers, and I found instructions on the internet that work. Maybe tonight I'll put a working snapshot.

The filter is a simple contains_case_insensitive. OK?

Thank you for the good suggestion! It is done, please test the snapshot: https://lalescu.ro/liviu/fet/download/test/ (or see the Snapshots topic here on the forum)!

I hope to release in maybe 2 days the final version.
