SearchBar customization

#1

Hello together,

today I played around with the SearchBar extension and struggled with two things:

  1. I wanted to use a custom search engine but unfortunately I don’t know how to specify the place where the search input has to be placed.
  2. When using a project behind the Desktop I can’t write into it. It seems like the Desktop catches the keyboard events.

Except for that, nice program! :slight_smile:

Hello ChuckMoe,

thanks for the positive review. That motivates us. Lately we have missed that a little :smiley:

  1. Use the following syntax: www.bing.com/search?q=[SEARCH]
    [SEARCH] will be replaced with the inserted text.
    Also dont add the prefix https://, it will be auto added.
  2. Yeah, that could be :thinking: I wasn’t able to press the mouse button. We have to check why it don’t receive mouse events. After that, the input field should receive keyboard focus.

Kind regards

Good evening PureAdmin,

and thank you for your fast reply, [SEARCH] is functioning great! :grin:
Yeah, I saw the https:// in the input field. At first I was a bit bewildered though, as it keeps standing above my input.

Best regards,
Moe

Good evening ChuckMoe,

I’m glad I could help you.

That’s some visual glitch. Will be fixed with the next release :wink:

Kind regards,
