v4.35's MyLibrary search does not find entries dependant on "modifiers" like "nearest"

Not a Problem

In Locus v4.35.0 the search does not find stuff from my library – sometimes when I do use any of the "modifiers" (mainly or only for "last points"), sometimes when I do not use a "quick filter" like in this example

Hi Georg,

could you please test it with the latest beta from https://bit.ly/lmVersionsTest? Thanks.

In v4.35.0.8 with default settings, it's still as visible in screenshot.

When re-testing other topics, I found the reason: Within search results, I had filters for POI icons active – and these filters become deactivated when a "modifier" is used.

Interestingly, the message in the screenshot explicitly names "this filter", but that did neither for you nor for me help to understand the reason – at least I assumed the search term was referred to as "filter" πŸ™„ Maybe the Locus' team as an idea on how to make it more clear that filter and search term are two different things, e.g. changing the message to something like "Sorry, the combination of search term and active filters <funnel/filter icon> doesn't bring any results. Change your search term and/or filter."

Best regards, Georg

Hi Georg,

the "modifiers" like "nearest points", "last recorded tracks" are filters too - lets call them "quick filters". Whe you activate a filter from the "filter" in the menu and then switch "nearest" on, the original filter is overwritten by the quick filter.

Hi Michal,

thanks for explaining the backgrounds behind my observation πŸ™‚

How about the ideas to make more perceivable when filters are active? πŸ™‚ Did you have a talk to Locus team?
