Same thing on macOS FWIW.
Same here. This was an essential feature for me.
Version: Insomnia 2023.2.2 Build date: 17. 5. 2023 OS: Windows_NT x64 10.0.22621 Electron: 22.0.0 Node: 16.17.1 V8: 10.8.168.20-electron.0 Architecture: x64
I just updated and have also lost this feature.
Version: Insomnia 2023.2.2 Build date: 5/18/2023 OS: Darwin x64 21.6.0 Electron: 22.0.0 Node: 16.17.1 V8: 10.8.168.20-electron.0 Architecture: x64
Still an issue with the latest update. Also, Environment Switch shortcut doesn't work anymore, neither default (⇧ ⌘ E) nor remapped.
Version: Insomnia 2023.4.0 Build date: 7/4/2023 OS: Darwin x64 22.5.0 Electron: 23.3.9 Node: 18.12.1 V8: 11.0.226.20-electron.0 Architecture: x64
+1 this should be fixed urgently, please.
Encountering this as well!
I'm sad to report that this is still an issue. Looks like @gatzjames in 2023.5.6 made an attempt to fix a lot of reported issues around sorting/filtering in sidebar #6323, that resulted in quite large UX/UI modifications, but unfortunately that didn't fix this particular issues with environments list (it was listed as out-of-scope). While typeahead filtering still doesn't work, more over, color tagging of the environments apparently broken, so that became even harder to lookup environment in a large lists manually.
In addition I've noticed that all the versions 2022.7.5+ has some changes that causing substantial slowdowns in the sidebar, such as the simplest action - expand/collapse folder on a large collections takes 2-3sec. Even with the latest above-mentioned refactoring, requests filtering works but with huge latency (5-10sec). All that said renders latest insomnia version unusable for me. Meanwhile rolling back to 2022.7.5 fulfills all my use-cases flawlessly, sacrificing some newly added functionality from the latest versions though.
@pavkout I think your PR here:
https://github.com/Kong/insomnia/pull/5615
Caused this regression issue - do you know if it can be reverted to the old dropdown?
This issue happens in 2013.4.0 as well. Anyone knows the last good version where this issue didn't exist?
As discussed in https://github.com/Kong/insomnia/discussions/6815#discussioncomment-7765772 let's see if we can get this fixed in our December release in a couple of weeks.
I just noticed in 8.5 I can now search again! It doesn't have the search input field like it used to, but it's definitely highlighting the environments that I start typing for.
Thanks all for the feedback. Closing as searching now highlights the appropriate environment!
