[Feature Request] Clarity on 'Search in Workspace' #45

Closed Amoursol closed 5 years ago

Amoursol commented 5 years ago

What is the problem that needs solving? image

The typology (Text, Group, Node etc) is at the end of each line of text here: i.e 'xyz [Text note]'

How would you like to see it solved? Create a new WPF grid at the start that holds the typology first - and if you click on that it further filters the search. First filter = Text match. Second filter = Typology.

Hey @Amoursol , are you aware that you can constrain the search when you expand the "Search Scope" control below the text input? I'm all for the idea of adding a second grid column containing the result type to clean up the UI, but I'm not sure whether I'd like two controls that essentially do the same thing.

Ah cool - had seen that before when I played but it skipped me this time! That's better. Agree that a grid-column for simple UI clean-up is useful still.

andydandy74 commented 5 years ago

Need to add a Type property to ObjectInWorkspace class that can be used to populate the first cell of each Grid. This will affect multiple tools.

@Amoursol - This will be in the next release. grafik
