Search function issue with nested subcollections
With nested subcollections, I find that the search function:
- always works from "My Library" (i.e. when My Library is highlit)
- always works from the subcollection directly containing the 'searched for' words
- never works from any intermediate subcollection between these two
I've observed this behaviour for a couple of years now

My Library always shows all items so searching there will find any item in the library.
Until literally 5 seconds ago, I had never noticed that there is also an advanced search magnifying glass icon which is also accessible from the menu
you know what ... it's a bit odd the the menu option "Edit - Find" takes you to the quck search bar. I know the advanced search is just below it, but maybe the two options should be "Quick Search" and "Advanced Search" to make it clearer.
Probably a symptom of my confused way of thinking, but I assumed that the "Advanced Search" would be the equivalent of the three pull down options on the quick search field so I never bothered clicking it and instead just wondered why Zotero had a 'broken' search function
