Hello,

After using SyMenu for such a long time and adding and organizing a lot of items I've come to realize that a filter or search field is a necessity.

Thus, my suggestion for a new feature would be an items filter or search functionality within the SyMenu items configuration panel.

Let's say I have hundreds or over a thousand items in the config panel and I want to quickly reach one of the items which I know by name, but can't remember exactly in what folder it is stored. By using the filtering system or a search field, I could input its name (just like I'm searching for an item from the contextual menu) and SyMenU would then display that item (or the items that match the filter) and their root folders- that way we can easily access the item for changes and also see where it is located in the folder tree structure.

Clearing the filter or search field would then display all items again, but leave the searched items expanded, so then the user can move them to different folders or locations and have a better overall view of where the item is located within the entire folder tree structure.

Thank you.

Hi ineedh3lp.

Isn't the search box in the top right of the configuration menu enough?
With this feature you can quickly find any item by name or portion of the name and localize it inside the tree by clicking on the item you are interested in.

Hello, Gianluca!

I am sorry for such a late reply, for some reason I didn't get notified by e-mail, though I specifically checked that option. Doesn't matter, I should revisit the forum more often anyway.

Regarding this subject I must admit that I am complete moron and I am ashamed, I honestly didn't notice the Start Search field on the upper right corner of the configuration window- I'm such a fool. It is working better than I could've ever wished.

Thank you and sorry for creating this topic uselessly.

Don't worry. It is part of the SyMenu magic: you desire and SyMenu executes like a genius in a bottle. :-)
