How to save the search results in a new collection?

Help & Support

Hi All,

Is it possible to save the search results in a new collection (just to avoid new same searches)?

Thank you!

  • If you are using the Find panel (Tools > Find Files), which uses Opus's internal functionality, you can specify the collection name at the top right of the panel.

  • If you are using the Search field, which uses Windows Search, you can right-click on the results and choose Save as Stored Query. You can then go up a level and rename the stored query/collection if you want to keep it and make it unique. (It will be named after the folder you searched in, by default.)

As per, I have spent a hour or so looking before posting - hope I didn't miss the answer elsewhere

I want, by default, EVERY new search to automatically default to "New Collection" or New Collection (2) or (3) etc if the Collection already exists.

Current behavior for me is that any new search overwrites my previous search result file collection by using the same name. Naturally, I do not want this. How do I make it default for it not to happen?

Likewise, I'd want the "Find In" locations list to default to blank not the last directory I searched (which often will have been used days ago for a total different purpose & file type, project etc)

Thanks Leo & co
