Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/BoostIO/BoostNote-App/issues/929

Originally assigned to: @Komediruzecki on GitHub.

Current behavior

In version 0.16.1 for Windows, the keyboard binding for global search (lupe icon in left-hand bar) is no longer working. This means that only way to activate search is using a mouse.

A note taking application should be possible to use with keyboard only.

Nothing happens on CTRL-P or other key bindings.

Expected behavior

CTRL-P was previously used to activate global search.

Steps to reproduce

Try keyboard binding.

Even the MENU "search (CTRL-P)" does nothing.

Environment

Windows 10 64bit, da-DK, Boostnote 0.16.1.

Desktop/Web

  • Boost Note.next version:
  • OS version and name:

Hi, myicq,

A known issue, a fix is already in place, currently, we are working on providing great local search as well, and a keymap feature so you can assign your custom keymaps for global and local search.

The fix and these features will probably be included in the next release, I hope next week.
