Jürgen Weber commented on DIRSTUDIO-634:
----------------------------------------

> Do you know the "Quick Search" feature [1]?

No, I did not notice it, cause it is not in the tree's context menu ;-)

The Quick search is a bit too quick, I'd rather have a search dialog to enter 
settings.

I think CTRL-F could be better used to show a search dialog (Internet 
Explorer's search) instead of showing Quick Search (Firefox's).

Anyway, having Quick Search in the context menu would be good.


> add search context menu entry / simplify search

> To search, you currently select a tree entry in ldap browser, then new -> 
> search
> I find this not very intuitive to have to click new to get a search dialogue 
> (I know, this is the Mac "everything is a document" spirit ;-), for me, the 
> collection of search results is useless, especially, as it is hard to re-use 
> them (scroll down, find the last, change properties, double click).
> I suggest to add an additional context menu "Search" to the tree entries, 
> which would immediately get a search dialog. If you allready had done this 
> previously, you get the previous search settings.
> This menu entry should be right at the top. Also, there should be an entry 
> "show last search result".
> ---
> search
> show last search result
> ----
> I think, this is what you mostly need, I never need or use the list of old 
> searches.
