Okay, I've been using 11 for a couple of months now, and as near as I can tell the search function is close to being unusable. I am constantly opening up 10, using its search function, finding what I need, writing down a name, and then doing the search in 11 with the specific location...
...it used to be that if a folder was called something like "shirt" the search results displayed everything in that folder, now it only displays the folder, with no clue as to the contents of the folder itself(I have 12 runtimes, with over 60 gigs of stuff in them--there are a lot of folders named "shirt"), so I'm having to go through and locate every folder called "shirt" and manually go and see if that folder has the shirt I'm actually looking for. Please tell me there's a work around here, because some of those folder contents are not named "shirt". Instead they might be named something like "floral print 01", and they are under a folder called "shirt"...
....I am having the hardest time finding things, I know I can't be alone. It is seriously(SERIOUSLY) bogging down my work time by eating hours sometimes just trying to find things that a simple search pulled up a thumbnail for in Poser 10.
...on another note, when clicking on the search input, and then dragging to highlight the text, nothing happens, I have to manually back space every letter in the file name. I know this might sound a bit nit-picky, but do that 10 times in an hour and you're eating up a lot of time, time that could be used trying to navigate the search results to find my content....
...another nit pick, the auto suggest, can it be turned off? If I type in "Apollo" I want to search for "Apollo", but typing "Apollo" and hitting enter, invariably selects the auto suggest "ApolloMaximus" which isn't what I wanted to search for, so now I have to click in the input, backspace every single letter, and type it again, this time selecting the correct auto suggest phrase and going forward. I can't highlight enough how counter intuitive this actually is. How do I simply turn this function off. Don't want it, don't need it, is seriously cutting into my natural workflow.
On another note, what gives with the undo function(ctrl+z) only working when you've actually clicked on the workspace area. If you're in the search box, undo does diddly squat. Is this intentional? Can it be turned off?
I'm desperate for any tips you guys might have, I am literally wasting hours of time on things that used to be as simple as search, drag, drop, move along.
