Result list does not sort the list using the hotkey

Post by JaegerFox »

the command to see the focus of the result list is control + space but it does not order the list according to the configuration used, instead clicking the arrow shows the list sorts

Are you referring to the auto-suggest sort order?

Please try changing the auto suggestion sort order (which is different to the sort order when clicking the drop down arrow):
  • In Everything, type in the following search and press ENTER:
    /search_history_suggestion_sort=x
  • If successful, search_history_suggestion_sort=x is shown in the status bar for a few seconds.
    where x can be one of the following:
    • 0 = Search
    • 1 = Count (default)
    • 2 = Date
To sort auto suggestions by date:
  • In Everything, type in the following search and press ENTER:
    /search_history_suggestion_sort=2
  • If successful, search_history_suggestion_sort=2 is shown in the status bar for a few seconds.
To sort auto suggestions by search:
  • In Everything, type in the following search and press ENTER:
    /search_history_suggestion_sort=0
  • If successful, search_history_suggestion_sort=0 is shown in the status bar for a few seconds.
To sort auto suggestions by count (default):
  • In Everything, type in the following search and press ENTER:
    /search_history_suggestion_sort=1
  • If successful, search_history_suggestion_sort=1 is shown in the status bar for a few seconds.

I'm assuming the user will want the most-used search item. (highest count)

What I would really like to do is show the most-used search item in the last 30 days.

I will consider adding a setting in the History options page.
Thank you for your feedback.
