Allow keyboard shortcut for "Find in Folder..." from Explorer sidebar

Open igaster opened this issue 7 months ago • 1 comments

It would be very helpful to assign a keyboard shortcut to the "Find in Folder..." action for a folder selected in the Explorer sidebar. This would streamline searching within specific folders without needing to use the right-click context menu.

Steps:

  1. Select a folder in the Explorer sidebar (either with the mouse or with the keyboard)
  2. Press a custom keyboard shortcut (e.g., Cmd+Opt+F).
  3. The search UI opens, scoped to the selected folder.

This feature would improve workflow efficiency for users who frequently search within specific folders.

There already seems to be a shortcut (this screenshot from Windows):
