red cross in simple search
The red cross only selects the search bar, instead of deleting everything (or selecting all the text within it – both acceptable approaches in my opinion)
Maybe you could also make it so that the red cross is always visible? Since sometimes it is not ,even though you may have something in the search bar this would happen if you change the tab for example.
(always talking about the simple search here (not advanced search which is a mini-window, not a bar)

Re: red cross in simple search
However, as previously explained, the red cross doesn't seem to do anything anyways

Re: red cross in simple search
Hi Medbooster,
I see the same here and have reached out to the devs to see if this is intentional or if it can be changed and will post here what I find.

Re: red cross in simple search
Are there builds? I thought there were just overall versions and that you had to wait till a new version comes out for fixes
Thanks

@MedBooster
Downloads at Tracker Software are always complete packages. They call them 'builds'.
Yesterday (Nov. 28, 2022), build 365 became available.
https://www.pdf-xchange.com/product/downloads
@Tracker Support
I tried the fix of the red cross in the Find feature in the most recent build 365.
After typing text in the Find-box and pressing Enter, the red cross now always appears, but clicking that red cross only empties the text in the Find box and does not delete that entry in the find list. Is that the intention? I would like to be able to remove individual words, because "Clear" removes all the words.
Kind regards.

Re: red cross in simple search
Hello @Willy
I think the red cross works well now
As far as I understand it's just an easier way to input a new search phrase, without having to select it all and press backspace
I don't think you're able to delete entries in simple search, if that's what you mean.
Oh and when I have been saying simple search, I'm referring to Find...

Thanks for your reply @MedBooster
Yes, that is what I mean, having the possibility to delete individual entries in the Find history.
Probably there have not yet been requests for that, but it would be a nice addition.

Re: red cross in simple search
Hi guys,
Medbooster is right in that it only removes that text so as to not have to select it then delete.
I guess if we hear a chorus of requests to change that we will consider it.
cheers guys.

Re: red cross in simple search
You got my +1 on some non-intrusive way to delete entries. Perhaps that's something that could be enabled by right clicking on the entry .(both in Find... (simple search) and advanced search.
You do already have a "clear" (all entries) for both simple and advanced search though. Which is nice.
I'm not sure for how long the entries stay there anyway

Yeah,
I think it is likely to remain this way, especially since as you say:

Re: red cross in simple search
so how long do the entries stay there?
And are they remembered if you open the PDF on another device, or share it with someone else?

Re: red cross in simple search
Hello MedBooster,
Those are remembered inside the Editor, not inside the file - and I believe they do not "Auto Expire" - so you will have to clear up that search list yourself using the tool/button provided.
Kind regards,
Stefan
