How to Save a Search
Hi,
Sorry for the silly question, but I can't figure out how to save a search (to the quickbar to the left).
I've looked through these forums and the welcome note on the app, but I can't find the instructions. (If it's because I haven't paid a registration fee yet, then that's totally acceptable.)
Thank you!

Hello @anthonycas , you can do it like this:
Best,
Oh, thank you very much!
Great work, thanks @wolff
This indicates to me that the process could be clumsy; @anthonycas can you tell me how you approached the problem and what you expected the app to do?

Hi @ctietze! Thanks for asking for feedback...
When I first tried to save my search, I actually did go into
Saved Searches | Edit Saved Searches
menu option. I did not notice the little+
button on the bottom left though.I think ideally, I would have found a menu option directly under
Saved Searches
to create just one saved search (without going into the fullEdit Saved Searches
dialog box). Maybe a single keystroke to immediately save whatever is in the Omnibar as a search.These are just quick thoughts, I'm sure some testing will provide much better additional insight into what would be good design.
thanks!
Ok, thanks! These are great candidates for experimentation already:

My suggestion,
Highlight a piece of text with the mouse, like the tag of a given Zettel for example, and with the right button, create the Search ... because normally we will create the search after we create the Zettel, just an idea
