An essential problem: the current lack of flexibility when changing of type of Search #710

Hi, again, Magdalena,

the worse thing of the current search is the lack of flexibility, when you need to change of type of search. For example, I had asked for the name Parmata, and stayed a little not doing anything else. Then, I just wanted to type something else in the main filter; I thus delete with the cross Parmata in the filter, clicked on ne Magnifizer, which is a way to refresh, but nothing happened, and Parmata kept written in the table, without any other way to search again than clicking on Browse again. Would it be possible quite easily to switch form one search to the other without being obliged to click on Browse again?

We need exactly not to browse but to keep all of the several searches we had done before, and being able to come back to all of them, to think about all of them.

Thank you for what could be done. I know I have many times already spoken about that problem, but it has to be solved before we open.

With all best wishes, Sophie

Additional:

for example, when I type Base and select then γενεσ, if I do not click as soon on the magnifizer, wait a little, and do it after, nothing happens anymore. And I have to click on Browse again. Very often, lack of reaction happens when for a while I do something else (not on LGPN-Ling or in LGPN-Ling but entering in the editor of a name to correct something, and try to come back to the search I had begun): it is as if it falls asleep! Best, thank you for when you will have a look at it, Sophie

In addition: and the fact is that when I try to search for something else, after having stayed for a while on another result of a previous search, if I ask e.g. for a name, after having asked for a base, the menu gives all possible names, I click on one, and then on the magnifizer to call it, and it is exactly at this point that nothing comes.
