@EmilienR: Thanks. I've topped-up your vote.

Hello,
Thanks for adding it to the tracker!

I made a 19$ donation, but I voted before so my vote counted as 1.
Edit : donation was made using another mail (abandoned one, m***.m****@orange.fr)
Kind regards.

I have added this request to the tracker:
Issue 2419 – Live panel filter
You can vote for it there.
A donation of course prioritizes the request :)

I'm willing to donate for this to be added, just tell me the price :)

Hello,

Yes that's what I tried to use but it's not convenient at all, each time I need to edit the filter, press apply, check if the selection is good, reopen it each time...

That's why an option in the search feature to only show files that contain the filter would be perfect :)

There's a filter feature for this:

(I know it's not 100% what you ask for)

Hello,

That's nearly what I want, but to only show the folder/files that match theses search.

So If I got a list :

AABB
BBCC
AACC
BBCC
DDBB

And I search for "A", it would only show :

AABB
AACC

In the list.

Would incremental search help?

Particularly if you configure it to Any part of name:

Hello,

I migrated after using FileZilla for 6 years, and currently I struggle with the search feature.
In FileZilla, if you used Ctrl+F it was doing in live a filter with name containing what you are tipping.

For example if I Ctrl+F "test" it will only display all file containing "test".
When you got tons of file and want to only display some of them to do a bulk opening/search, it's way easier.

There is nearly the same feature with the search but too limited:

• Need to place * at the start and the end (like *test*)
  
• It's not live search
  
• If I want to clear/edit the search, I need to reopen it
  

For me that's the only drawback of WinSCP, for everything else I found a solution

Kind regards.
