In previous versions of VIP Organizer, when I would bring up the search box there was no default text filled in and as I would start typing it would try and auto suggest what I wanted to search for.

In the current version, the search text field's default value is the current task's title with the cursor at the beginning of the text box. This is usually not what I want and I find I have to select the entire search box (CTRL-Shift-End) and write my search string instead.

I'm assuming that some people find it useful to have that default value so can you at least have the search box highlight the default search string? That way, if I want to search for what's filled in for me I can just hit CTRL-Enter. But if I want to write my own search string I can just start typing and not have to select the entire search string.

Could you please tell us what version number you used before so we could determine when this appeared?

I believe (not 100% sure but pretty sure) that before upgrading to 2.4.3 I was using 2.0.3.

We have checked this, but it worked the same way in v2.0.3. When the task is not highlighted there is no text in the search box, but if it is highlighted it appears. We understand that it could be annoying so we will make it 'already selected' and you will have no need to SHIF-END.
