Preflight Checklist

Problem Description

Just a thought, but it would be convenient if there was an option to set the search box that appears when clicking on the magnifying glass icon to centered, instead of appearing in the left corner of the screen in Windows 10.

If you're using windows 11, this isn't an issue, obviously. Everything Toolbar centers the menu properly.

If you're using the app 'Start11' by stardock in windows 10 though, you can center the start menu and icons like it is in windows 11. But, even with Start11, Everything toolbar's search that appears when clicking the taskbar icon still appears on the left corner. That's only in windows 10 though.

Example screen shot in windows 10 using the Start11 app:

Proposed Solution

Add an option to the settings to 'center' the pop up menu or keep it aligned to the left (for those not using Start11 or TaskbarX or a similar program).

Alternatives Considered

Not sure? I appreciate the consideration tho

Hi @matt-derrick, I added an option isForceCenterAlignment that will force the search window to be center-aligned. I don't want to add it to the settings menu to prevent bloat since this is a rather niche requirement. The option can be set in the user.config file for EverythingToolbar (unfortunately the config location currently varies a bit, see #313):

<setting name="isForceCenterAlignment" serializeAs="String">
    <value>True</value>
</setting>

This will be available in the next release (no ETA yet).
