Unity Dash/Lens - Auto-completion based on recent search strings
- by Anant
Sometimes, I find myself typing the same (or quite similar) search strings inside a Unity Lens. So, I thought whether it's possible for the Lens to remember previous searches, and provide a drop-down menu of possible suggestions (based on the past) when I start typing my new query.
With Lenses for sites like Wikipedia and DuckDuckGo, the search strings are getting longer, and this feature would lend a helping hand in filling out queries faster.
This could be something applicable to all Lenses, with later versions allowing individual Lenses to run their own auto-completion algorithm.
