In the search dialogue, the "shown in" field often stays empty. Does it still only show the items that are actually visible in the respective grid because they are currently opened?
 
I think there have been some discussions on that this field should show all items included in the grid, not only the currently opened ones.. Are there technical restrictions that make this not possible or is this change in the development pipeline?
 
Thank you for feedback! Regards, Thorsten
 
PS: It would be nice if one could see if IQ has finished searching or how long it still takes to search all items.. (i.e. with a progress bar).

Grids are extremely versatile, and can show just about any items (with Hoisting, it can display any item), so yes, it currently reports all visible items only. v0.9.27 will bring a new grid display which will improve this (to a certain extent)
 
re Progress bar: In v0.9.25D, there is now a text label which show "Searching...". (searching is done through the JET engine which does not provide this information)
