Way to sort out the best find

[hasantahir]

In the example shown in the image, Wooshy finds four connect instances but the meaningful one is the one which is last on the list. Can there be a way to bring to the top the ones that are associated with an interface?

ah. that's a good idea.

questions and blah blah below though. just in case:

1. if you don't need the menu bar, you can remove it from the search in the Preferences
2. you can reach the last item with command down, or G if you use Wooshy and kindaVim together (https://github.com/godbout/Wooshy.docs#navigate)
3. currently Wooshy follows the macOS way, that is top left to bottom right (like if you were using tab to go from one control to the next anywhere)

there could definitely be an option in the Preferences to allow for some kind of priority. the only thing i'm afraid about, is that it may then feel very weird to navigate through the targets. like in your case it would first navigate the interface, then go to the menu, then the status icons? i can foresee people getting lost and finding the UX quite inconsistent. what do you think?

Thanks. Just realised that if I type connect but, it takes me to the button where I want to be:

The documentation shows something similar for tab, perhaps this should be added there as well.

I agree that coming up with some sort of order might make things messy.

ah, yes.
it's written a bit below:

Don't think too much, just type. e.g. tab, radio, checkbox, button, pop up, toggle. (You never need to type the whole... type, just part of it is enough most of the time.)

but it may not be clear enough. will adjust. you can type button, radio, checkbox, switch, toggle, tab, menu etc. whatever you think, it may work.

should we close then? :D

[godbout]

also you don't need to type the whole connect. probably you could type con but.

That's even better, thanks. That's sorted.
Cheers.

That's even better, thanks. That's sorted.

it was showcased in the last video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wzcsXKZ9ZDc
and it's on the README. but it's not clear enough yeah, sorry about that. will update! have fun.
