crackout Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 i'm tired of this <search here> in the search box.an option to keep the box clear would be very very nice this could be combined with a "clear after search"-option, which clears the box after a search was started in order to be able to start another without having to delete the entry yourself.

Ultima Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 That's how it was originally -- clear. What's so tiring about the <Search Here>? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nefarious Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 how is this a feature? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splintax Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 <Search Here> is fine, though personally I don't think it should be capitalized. Totally minor, though.However, I do agree with the suggestion that the box should be cleared after hitting enter to perform a search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nefarious Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 well, to tell you the truth when i first started on utorrent i didnt even knew what was that textbox for until i tried it after it came with the text, i know of many people that understood utorrent came with a search function so would be better not having it blank again I agree however that it shouldnt be capitalized Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taimpsfm Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 "<Search Here>" isn't fine. It's very clumsy.- it shouldnt be capitalized- the "<" and ">" marks are pointless- the box should be cleared after hitting Enter to perform a searchPlain "search here" is sufficient and fine.Please, visit also my feature-request-thread:http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=7133 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 What's wrong with capitalization? Everything lowercase looks unprofessional to me. And about the brackets... People often put angle brackets to mean some kind of parameter, so I'm not sure what the big deal with that is either. As for the clearing... wouldn't that sorta conflict with your other request?Tiny sidepoint... although your other request pertains to search as well, is unrelated, so I don't see any reason to link to it... People will notice it if they visit the appropriate forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 I personally don't mind, but <Search> would be a better alternative than "search here," or "Search here" =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gatos Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 id rather see it not clear after each search as ive had to search on different sites to find a couple of torrents, so would rather the search stay in the window so i dont have to type it every time i wanna search a different site, its easier to just double click the search box and type over last search if you wanna search for something else.

splintax Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 Ultima: with regard to the capitalization, you only capitalize the first word of a sentence or a proper noun. (I'm sure you know this already, just explaining my logic ) That's why "Search Google" makes sense but "Search Here" doesn't. I'd suggest "Search here", then.Gah, can't believe I'm arguing over this.
