* It would be helpful when the advanced search editor window (eg PubMed) would populate itself with the terms from the most recent search.

I am doing advanced searches that I wish to modify on the fly. The cumbersome aspect of this is that I have to re-enter the search terms each time.

* It would be helpful when the search input line would allow me to move through the search term to edit, eg with arrow keys.

I am doing searches with combinations of Boolean links. When I have a mistake in the first term in a long list, I cannot scroll back to change it.

Thank you for your feedback! I agree that the advanced search form and the main search field could be improved. We will look what can be done here a bit later, but can you please give more details about the last sentence. You can send a screenshot to support@referencesontap.com.

For example, consider in an arXiv search that I want to change this line:

nanoparticle film AND Langmuir AND "last 1 year" [dp]

to:

nanoparticle AND "Langmuir film" AND "last 1 year" [dp]

I am stuck trying to edit a line that appears this way [...]angmuir AND "last 1 year" [dp]

Did you try to tap and hold the space bar to enter keyboard trackpad mode to move the cursor around the text.

Oh. No. How clever.

The things we don't know!

Thanks.
