Using Ubuntu 12.04 with Gnome Shell (with official repository). Nautilus version is 3.4.2.

When using "tracker-needle" (the graphical interface for Tracker Search), the content inside files is found (Full Text Search and Metadata Search works), but when I'm in a folder in Nautilus, I only find files by filename (only Metadata Search is working, Full Text Search is not).

The strange thing is, that I am capable of assigning tags to files in Nautilus, so Tracker is already connected with Nautilus, but Full Text Search seems not to work.

How do I integrate the Tracker Full Text Search feature into Nautilus, so that I can search inside a specific folder for a particular word or phrase?

Best wishes!
