Used to be that when i clicked on Inventory and typed in my search field for a certain word - ONLY the words matching would appear - now i get my entire inventory opening up folder by folder to show me matching words - not particularly practical having to scroll down masses of things to find an item.

Used to be that when i found the item i was looking for and clicked on it to highlight it, then removed my search word with the clear button - my mouse would still be on that item i'd selected so i could find it nice and easily, not so now.

Talking about that clear button, it's been replaced by an X it seems - however that X doesn't actually clear the word 9 times out of 10 and you have to manually backspace it.

While the "recent items" is a nice new addition, and i'm all for adding enhancements, i cannot for the life of me, understand why you would take a backward step in removing things that made inventory management efficient and user friendly.

Heya Tashie, those are bugs. They're not intentional. So, in just a few hours, fixes!

More to come too. Thanx for your feedback, I've spent a lot of time recently hashing out usability in an everyday context.
