1°) Can’t wait for the webinar!

2°) When searching for a snippet using the inline search, how can I have the last word I have written before the inline search is triggered NOT shown in the inline search?

From personal experience, I have found having that word pre-populated not very useful.

Thank you!

Hi, @Francois-AlbertGando, I spoke to support, and this is the intended functionality. The thought process is that the user will invoke Inline Search after typing the thing they want to search for, so we autofill that to jump-start the search. I’ve asked the product team if we can add a way to disable that. Interestingly, it doesn’t behave that way on my machine.

Support tells me you can cancel it by arrowing back and forth and then invoking Inline Search.

Update: Excellent news @Francois-AlbertGando! I just spoke to the product team, and this feature is going to be removed entirely.

This is great news, should the behaviour be changed . Always found it ultra-annoying, constantly having to delete out the word that was pre-populated.:+1:

Edit - Looks like this may have already been changed in 8.4 as I’m no longer getting the preceding word pre-populated.
