Summary

Improves the BLE device chooser UX by adding alphabetical sorting and search/filter functionality to address issue #2361. Users reported difficulty finding their flight controller in a long, constantly-updating device list.

Changes

  • Added search input box with real-time filtering
  • Implemented alphabetical sorting by device name
  • Devices now maintain stable positions during scan updates (no more jumping)
  • Cancel button stays at bottom
  • Search filters both device name and ID
  • Removed CSS forcing the buttons to be smaller than their content

Testing

  • Tested manually with configurator in development mode
  • Search input filters devices in real-time correctly
  • Alphabetical sorting maintains stable list order
  • Devices no longer jump around during scan updates
  • Cancel button remains at bottom
  • No regression in BLE connectivity
  • Code reviewed with inav-code-review agent - all issues addressed
  • Button labels are actually in their associated buttons
