One of my favourite features in APEX 4.x was the search bar, often not actually for searching but for opening another page by typing the page number, particularly coming from shared components.

For a while I thought I'd lost that feature, since I was expecting to be able to type into were the page number is reported (when in shared components), but you just need to type the page number where the magnifying glass is.

As innovative as the search bar is for finding content, I do find it a little disconcerting how it jumps left everytime I click in there and start typing. And it doesn't seem like a natural place to click? Not when the page number is nearby with a teasing possibility of edit. Darn you
contrast.

I miss the next/previous buttons from the navigation bar, but it does look a little full.
Bonus feature: you can search for app:page to switch applications as well, or app:s to jump to an application's shared items page.
ReplyDeleteWell isn't that a little bit of terrific.
