Searching colors in palette

[gzagatti]

When in the palette window, I am able to search the colors in my palette by pressing CTRL+F which invokes a search box at the bottom right corner of the app. I can search only for colors by hex code if I start the search with #. However, I have not been able to search colors by their name. Is that possible? I am afraid I cannot find this feature documented anywhere in the repo.

Hi,
unfortunately there is no way to search by color name, because this is the default search behavior, which only uses first column containing text.
I improved this in c6bb676 to search in both columns.

That's great. Thanks for the addition. I will try to install it over the weekend.

Btw, this app is really cool. It's a great way to manage palettes for all sort of projects.

How is this function supposed to work? I've installed the current git version, and if I press Ctrl-F, a search box does appear, but absolutely nothing happens if I type anything into it and hit enter. In the "primary view-color picker" pane, there's a "Color name" box under "Info," and a "Color" box under "Input," but trying to enter anything directly into either one simply does nothing. I agree this is a great app, and it'd be really useful to be able to search for a color's name to get the color, but it just doesn't seem to work.
