Quick find in Opera windows panel

Quick find in windows will be very much useful to close/reload group of sites quickly by typing few characters of page title and selecting them instead of manually selecting them using Ctrl & Shift keys. By default, there is no quick find in windows panel but you can add it easily.

Right click in windows panel → Customize... → Buttons → Search → Drag & drop Quick find to the required location

Would be much more useful if it can find any text on pages, not only page titles.

I love quick find in windows panel, one of the most useful little things that got fixed recently (IIRC this was fixed to work correctly in 9.10 or so). And yes, as FataL points out, there can be improvement done - be patient :wink:

Indeed csant I had tried it in the past and it didn't worked.
Glad to see it working!

But I better not comment on the word little.p:
Com' on you guys, you haven't made almost any liftups to the interface since version 7.5, there are so many little things outthere. I can't really understand it. For example this case, you fixed it, bravo, you couldnt also place the searchbox? We should have waited until kestrel to see it placed?

I don't get it, but big thanks anyway!:cheers:

Great Tip. Thanks.

Now if only there were some way to search within the text of a panel (especially those created from long web pages), then I think I'd be nearly completely satisfied with panel performance.

Is there anyway to change the icons in the quick panel? I noticed a few change but the rest stay the same.
