Option to keep search results until new search?

Post by winfidel »

Sorry if this is already an option, or a request. I searched for both first.

I think it would be useful and intuitive if the "Search Results" did not automatically restart when you leave and return to the tab. For a contents search in a big directory, especially on a network, it can take a significant amount of time to search again in order to display the same results that were just there.

Actually, it looks like this can be done by turning auto sync off, but I like the autosync feature. What I would rather see is have it not do a new search until press "Find Now" button, and then if auto sync is on, it will search whatever folder is highlighted in the tree.

Hi and welcome to the XY forums!

The ability to cache results of a search is something that is on the "roadmap" as I recall...

Update: Yes, it's there...ok, so a bit low on list...but...http://www.xyplorer.com/xyfc/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=830
