Hi.
I want to share "Search Field in Options" project report for week #3.
> Summary
- There is a problem with accessing methods of sub-dialogs in
Options dialog. (the reason is that the sub-dialogs don’t exist
until the page is switched)
- We decided that strings in all .ui files (in ./cui/*) will be
generated at build-time.
- I’ll be trying to generate the data at build-time in the
following weeks.

> Steps for implementing search functionality in “Tools >
Options”:
1) Add Search field to “Tools > Options”
dialog. (DONE - week #1)
2) Include Options treeview into searching. (DONE - week #1)
3) Include Sub-tree elements (child nodes) into searching.
(DONE - week #2)
4) Generate all strings(labels), accessible-names,
accessible-descriptions and tooltip-texts of all .ui files in
./cui/* directory, at build-time. (Next step)
5) Fetch the generated data - at run-time.
6) Include strings(labels), accessible-names,
accessible-descriptions and tooltip-texts into searching.
7) Implement highlighting feature - if enough time remains.
Thank you.
Regards, Bayram Çiçek
