Title: hotkey to focus on search filter
Post by: garretwilson on July 14, 2018, 04:49:20 PM

I want to map a hotkey such as `Ctrl+K` (a common search/filter key combination) to focus on the "search" box in the top right-hand corner so I don't have to click on it with a mouse. (I don't want to bring up the "find" dialog".) How can I do that? I don't see anything in the hotkeys that looks like "focus on the search box".

In the Hotkeys dialog, find the option that says "General: Goto Text Search Box", it will map to the search you want. I found it after some trial and error too.
