When using the "Feature Find" feature (shortcut `C-Space`) is it possible to diable the visual hints that it shows (i.e. opening the path in the menus and showing a blue arrow)?


Currently when this visual hint prompts I cannot move anymore across items in the palette with the keyboard.


E.g. I do `C-Space` search for 'PNG' and this shows several options. I want to move across the options and hit Enter but the moment that visual hint appears with the open menus the dropdown in the search palette is not responsive anymore.

Hi Jesus 


Thank you for posting in the Lucid Community! What I'm hearing you describe is that you're trying to use your keyboard to toggle through the search results in the Feature Find. Is this what you're trying to do?



I did the example you described and I was able to toggle up and down with the keyboard through the options in the export menu but not in the options of the feature find result list. However I haven't been able to reproduce this when searching for other features with the feature find tool - for example searching "sticky" or "omnigraffle" allows us to toggle up and down the search results. Noted that it's behaving differently for the "PNG" or other items on the "export menu."


Regardless it is not possible to disable the visual hints. However we're always looking for ways to improve Lucidchart and your feedback is the best way for us to do that. Would you mind adding your idea to our feature request form? Ideas submitted to this form are passed on to the product development team for their consideration.
