Request: Searching in ArkInv main frame #85

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
I love the new search function, but I'm wondering if it might be
implemented without a separate frame for it.  My idea is just having an
unobtrusive search box somewhere (on the bag bar?  money bar?).  As you
type in this search bar, for example if you type an "A", every item that
doesn't begin with an "A" gets set to 0.2 transparency, or something.

Is this possible?

I second this suggestion HIGHLY, this bag mod truly is kick ass, i like 
everything
about it, if a local search could be added ...... why use anything else?!?!?

I've recenlty changed to using AI from Combuctor (which unfortunatly is a bit 
broken 
in 3.02) one of the GREAT and most heavily used features of combuctor is the 
search. 
I would really like a better search feature in AI. 

In Combuctor, you can start typing in a word or part of a word and the mod 
dynamically filters out anything that does not match what you type. If you then 
close the bags and then reopen them, it remembers the state of the search and 
shows 
only those things that match. 

Just one example of how this is useful - when fighting Naj'entus in BT I set my 
bag 
filter to "spine" so if I loot the spine and open my bags, the ONLY thing I see 
in 
the frame is the spine, making it easy to find and throw it when he bubbles.

Now a simple "greying out" of non-matching items would also work, but I really 
love 
the way combuctor does searches.

Again I fully support / look forward to such a search in Ark that greys out
non-matching items in the main bag frame, please take a look if this is 
something
that could be implemented.

Oh man!!!!  Just checked out the beta, and that is AWESOME!!!  I'm sure it's 
already
occurred to you, but can we get a small button now to clear the contents of the
search box?

I have been wracking my brain trying to find the icon I had in mind for this.  I
don't know how to tell you what the icon's file name is, but if you open your
character window and go to the skills tab, then click on one of your primary
professions, there's a little cancel button in the bottom frame for unlearning 
your
primary profession.  I would use that next to the search text box.
