How to use

1. Open the menu (Insert) and click Search or press Ctrl+K (Ctrl+F also works).

The menu opens the right tab and page, switches the sub-tab and highlights the found row.

What it does

• Searches the names of tabs, pages and setting rows. Hints and descriptions are not taken into account.
• Some rows also have extra keywords: the row is found by them too, in any menu language. For example, the camera distance in Dota 2 is found by "zoom out".
• A name is searched in all menu languages at once: you can type the English or Russian name regardless of the selected language.
• Understands a query typed in the wrong keyboard layout: fbv (the Russian word for "aim" typed on an English layout) finds the aim settings.
• Understands transliteration: a query in Latin letters finds Russian names (avto finds names starting with the Russian word for "Auto…").
• Exact matches come first, then matches at the start of a name, then matches in the middle.
• Results are grouped by tab. Results from the currently open tab come first.
• If a group has more than 4 matches, 3 are shown first. The rest are opened with the Show more (N) row. Up to 96 results are shown in total.
• If nothing is found — "No results".
• With an empty query, Recent is shown: the last 5 results you jumped to. Delete removes the selected item from recent, Clear removes the whole list.

Menu navigation

• Alt+← / Alt+→ — back and forward through the history of opened menu pages.
• Right-click a row shown outside its own page (in results, in the hotkeys list) → Go to opens its page.
• Some tabs have their own search field above the page list (for example, the hero search in the Heroes tab in Deadlock). While the cursor is in it, ↑/↓ pick a page in the filtered list (it is highlighted) and Enter opens it. With a non-empty query, Enter opens the first match right away.

FAQ

Search doesn't find a setting by its description. Search looks only at the names of rows, pages and tabs. Try a keyword from the name, in English or Russian.

Ctrl+K doesn't open search. The shortcut works only while the menu is open and the menu tour is not running.

Only 3 rows from a tab are shown in the results, but there are more matches. Click Show more (N) under that tab's group.
