[Enhancement] Kernel Inspector search bar improvement

[adbhdev]

This is just a minor improvement request I have if you have the spare time to look at this app again. If not, it's ok, since I haven't noticed any more crashing after my first bug report.

---

In the Kernel Inspector, the search bar has no "jump to next match" button. I am forced to manually scroll through all of the open kernel windows to find my matched term(s).

Suggested Change

Add a button at the right side of the search bar that,
when clicked, will jump to the next found match of the
search term. Please make it notify the user when it
starts over at the top after the last match has been passed.

Thanks for making this app!

Thanks for the suggestion and for the kind words.

You’re right , the current search only highlights matches and doesn’t provide navigation between them. Adding a “next match” button with wrap-around detection (and a notification when cycling back to the first result) is a reasonable UX improvement for the Kernel Inspector.

I’ll keep this in mind and look into implementing match indexing + navigation when I get time to revisit this part of the app. No promises on timeline, but the idea itself makes sense.

Appreciate the feedback 👍

You're very welcome! I love being about to check all the kernel info using this app!

No rush about the time btw.
