How to make quick spotlight search "live"?

Post by iandol »

Hi, I would like to set up the quick search that for spotlight it is also "live" (no need to press enter). To user manual states it isn't live for performance reasons, but my searches after pressing enter are faster than I can easily perceive, and this must depend on the age of the machine and the size of the database. It would be nice to have an option for this somewhere if it isn't possible yet.

Also this is maybe a very minor optimisation, but I'd like to be able to switch between "All Fields" and "Spotlight" without having to use the context menu of the search icon, could a key binding be able to change this?
