Add CRTL+L shortcut to focus on search bar

Post by cviot »

Hi,

Since Everything is similar to the Windows explorer it would be great to have some of the same shortcut. One that I use often is CTRL + L to go to the path bar and type directly in it without to use the mouse. It would be great if the CTRL+L would do the same in Everything.

To set Ctrl + L to focus the search bar:
  • In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Keyboard tab on the left.
  • To the right of Show commands containing, search for: focus
  • Select Search Edit | Focus Search Edit.
  • Click Add....
  • Press Ctrl + L and click OK.
  • Click OK.
Ctrl + L will focus the search bar by default in the next version of Everything.
