Hello Jerry and UltraCookie

Yesterday the Web Search fild wasn't shown,

The way UltraCookie told was working fine, the search result from DuckDuckGo was showed up.

The way Jeery showed also works fine

Here how to set the code from Jerry

Thanks and Greetings

You can already kinda do that. open the whisker menu (win-key) and type "? <your search term>" and it will open a browser and search on duckduckgo by default but you can change that.
with "!w" you can search on wikipedia directly

Hello All,

I like to suggest a search window integrated into the task list,
where internet searches could placed and then the browser
will open with the search result.

See attached picture area with red boundaries

I think it will be a nice feature what will make LL more comfortable.

From my view following will be needed:
> Search window >> it is allready used for some issues at LL
> A selection of the browser, default is standard browser (Settings)
> A selection of the search provider Google ..... (Settings)

I know it is easy to suggest, but not so easy to implement.

If it can't set at task list then a desktop widget will be nice also.

Greetings

Nanayaw
