Provide more control for tree searching #124

Open willeastcott opened 3 years ago

willeastcott commented 3 years ago

Currently, searching tree items does a fuzzy match.

Sometimes, it is useful to just search based on exact matches.

Allowing the developer/end-user the ability to select a match type would be useful.

Indeed. I believe better sorting of search results - would do a great job here:

  1. Exact matches first (case insensitive)
  2. Partial matches then (case insensitive)
  3. Fuzzy matches based on string distance then

Also an ability to search by tag, just like for assets: [enemy], [level-1, mob], etc.
