Quick Search Popup Without Pressing Enter (Feature request) #4739

Open kleutzinger opened 2 months ago

kleutzinger commented 2 months ago

Describe feature

Current behavior: To search in quick search, you

  1. type a query,
  2. press Enter
  3. Look through the list and click your desired note

Desired behavior:

  1. Type a query (as you are typing, new results show up on each keystroke)
  2. At any point click the desired note

It would be nice to be able to quick search without having to press enter to show the results. This would makes things quicker.

Current behavior: image << press enter >> image

Would be nice to not have to press enter. Maybe debounced search could happen on keydown. The popup could show up as you type, and maybe pressing enter opens the top result (or shift-enter).

Actually, the new tab note search has this exactly-described behavior. Although it also gives the option to create a note, which would probably be unnecessary for the quick search I'm describing.
