Cannot search one vault only

Added your feedback as well, @wrandy, thanks for taking the time to let us know! 🙂

Agree. Losing the ability to search within a Vault is a big miss, especially since that functionality was in v7. :(

Thanks for your feedback, @JasonHolderness! We have a couple existing feature requests for what you describe that are being tracked internally. I've added proxy votes on your behalf to them. I appreciate you letting us know this is important to you. 👍🏻

Not a fan of this. It doesn't filter the list of matching items either unless you press command-enter. Just so much extra work to do what should be a simple task.

This: Click Vault. Click Search. Type Something. See filtered list of matching items.
Becomes This: Click Vault. Press command-F. Type Something. Press command-enter. See filtered list of matching items.

Maybe you could have a setting that dictates whether the top search defaults to All or searches within context of the selected vault.

Hi @schester:

Thanks for your feedback on this. While I can't promise anything, I'll share your feedback with the team.

Jack_P_1P that does help, although it would sure be nice if the search box was just in the context we're expecting like it did in previous versions. For what it is worth, the first time I tried this it didn't work, but it seems to be working since then.

Thanks for the help @Jack.P_1P, I didn't figure the single vault search in desktop also. But how about in 1P8 for iOS? I tried selecting the vault and search but it still shows all results from all the vaults. It only isolated the search when I typed "=vault:Personal" and appended my search keyword.

Hi @504mike:

Great question! If you have a vault selected in the sidebar, pressing ⌘+F will search just that vault.

Let me know how you get on with that!
