How To Install A Button For Global Everything Search

I am trying out DO and so far am amazed how good it is.

I have been using the + key for Global Searches which is working extremely quickly.

Rather than having to type the + key each time, can anyone explain in layman's terms how to add a button on the toolbar as a quicker way of accessing this feature? Thanks very much. (Possible Feature Request?)

Using the search field at the top-right of the main window is the usual way to do it. (Click the magnifying glass on the left of it to select the type of search.)

Does it produce the same result?

It should do, yes.

Thanks Leo. Yes you are right. Feel like a novice!

I didn't know about the + shortcut. Very handy. However, it doesn't seem to accept regular expressions if I do a global search that way. Only if I use the box at the top right can I use a regular expressions for my search. Is that correct, Leo?

It supports regex as well, but you have to turn it on in Preferences.
