Currently, there is no Shortcut to perform a direct search from the “Search New Eden” field in the top left corner of the game client. The user has to use the mouse to gain focus.

Suggestion:

- Add a new Shortcut “Set Search Focus” option for “Search New Eden” field. On pressing the shortcut, the focus changes to the field in the top left corner. Once pressed, the user can type in a search term.
- Set the default Shortcut to " Control + P" inline with the (fuzzy) search functionality in many different tools and editors.
