View strings while in find

[Ayplow]

Issue: feature request Type: text

More details:

Using the find feature to find an unknown string is very tedious at the moment, as we have to type in the term, then look blindly through the list, reopening the window and moving the mouse for every string. It would be great if we could get a preview of the string content of the field before double clicking to have a more active preview.

Even better would be allowing a filter in the list on the left of the editor (Regex plz 😄 ) that would only show the relevant entries. This would mean the 'Text preview' tool would also fill this purpose.

On a side note - could the text preview be added as a second column instead of concatenated onto the key? Its minor, but it would make the UI much more pleasant to use.

Fwiw, if you could point me to the sections of code that handle this stuff, I'd love to take a shot at at adding them myself

These are all good ideas that I'll consider, but most likely I'll be adding them to Kuriimu2.

You are however perfectly welcome to attempt adding them to v1.
