It is not a bug. It is two different functions:

1) Quick search - Ctrl+S hotkey

2) Quick filter - Ctrl+F hotkey

So "filter" button used only to switch mode on the fly. It is not permanent switch.

@Alexx2000
You are right, this is more of a feature request then a bug.
The problem is, when you are using the quick search/filter with no hotkey, but straight via typing desired filename, then you are stuck with search and have to switch to filter always.

It would help a bunch to have an option in the `Options > Quick search/filter` allowing us to start either a SEARCH or a FILTER.

That would be a feature of the year, sir.

Version 0.8.4 allows with Ctrl-S and Ctrl-F inside Quick search/filter to switch back and forth, so I would not call that being "stuck" ;-)

You mean that with this new option enabled by simply typing it would default to a filter instead of a search, right?
Ok, that would make the Quick search/filter even more powerful, though I would give that a rather low priority.

How to name this option?
"Typing defaults to filter instead of search"?
(default: deselected)

Or making it a radio button selection?
Typing defaults to:
(.) Search (default)
( ) Filter

No, DC already has such option with items:
- quick search
- quick filter

ddhh requests third variant 'quick search or filter', that activate last used mode.
