It take the same time to type in a search box and in a notepad. But I am describing another situation: in the notepad I have a list of files which I needed but can't find right now in my local network. So I research for them time to time. So I already have list in the notepad and I need to reenter them in the search tab every time when I do search again. Ability to automatic open search tabs for items in notepad would be very helpful in a such situation :)

But Apex has similar functionality now: navigate to download queue, select all items, right click and select "Search for Alternatives". As a result it opens new search tabs for each row. The same logic I suggest for search by names from notepad. Besides, absence of a such feature doesn't stop users from opening many search tabs. Right now I open 60 tabs, enter file names, run searches and (taking into account that in my local hub search interval is 30sec) I go for a tea(untill all searches will be finished and I can look through the search results). So as I understand the load on a server is the same (as with automatic search feature), but right now I need to spend additional 10-15 minutes to enter all file names manually.

Great! Nice to hear it - will be waiting for an implementation :)

Hi! I use built in Apex Notepad to store some notes about files that I would like to find. Right now I have about 60 notes about needed files. To walk through that list I copy a file name, click Ctrl+S, paste the file name and search. And repeat these actions for 60 times. If there would be ability to select some notes in notepad, right click and select in popup menu something like "Search for Selection" (similar to "Search for alternatives" in downoad queue, only with breaking by new line) it would save a lot of time. Do you have plans to implement something like that in future versions?

Hi! As it stated in the topic it would be great to have ability to save default search parameters. In 90% I search for movies and every time when I click Ctrl+S I have to select type as Video and minimum file size equal to 600Mb. If there would be a button "Save as default" on search panel (and after that I don't need to enter default values again and again) it would be very useful! What do you think?
