using search from tool bar behavior questions #685
Comments
So? I don't see a problem, standard behavior, imo. Same as in earlier versions. When you sit in the tree, it searches tree node names. You sit in the editor, it searches text. For more comprehensive searches, you use the search panel of the right sidebar. |
Thank you for the confirmation of my 'edit' above. About the other point I made, am I correct... 'search all folders' include 'search all tree nodes' and possibly greying out the latter when 'search all folders' is selected. |
I think it goes without saying, but sure, greying out would make it unmistakably clear. |
I remember seeing that scenario in the Find options [Resource Panel]...anyway it's a great well thought out program! I've tossed away 3 other programs by transferring their data here...nice to have general note info, phone/address book and to-do all in 1 configurable program. |
About the greying out of some search options: You are right, it would make sense to be consistent in both, the sidebar and the search dialog. I am sure the author has been reading along and made a note of your suggestion. @dpradov has been incredibly effective in raising this program onto a whole new level, in a very short time. This requires strong prioritizing, and I'd say, the greying out is probably not a high priority issue.
I fully agree. And it's capable of much more than mere info dumps and data storage. I also use it for work-in-progress, proofreading, brainstorming, outlining, typing up articles and blog posts ... Just like you, I tossed most of my other programs in favor of Keynote. And that includes bought licensed apps, too. Comfort, portability, speed, support even — Keynote is hard to beat. |
… all tree Nodes" vs "Search Hidden nodes" in Find form Ref: #685
When I use search from the tool bar sometimes I get different search windows...
And then other times I get...
Also...It seems 'search all folders' includes 'search all tree nodes'...perhaps when selecting 'search all folders' by default 'search all tree nodes' should be checked and greyed out.
EDIT: After more testing it seems when the cursor is active on any node, search will then only look for matches in all the node names for the active folder you're in...but if the cursor is active in the note then all the text in that note will be searched, not folder names.
And the cursor location is what determines which search box appears.
