Zotero 10's library search suggestions

Dayo_Liu
In the previous versions of Zotero 10, the "Edit - Advanced Search" function allowed searching based on "My Library", which was helpful for me to find articles that had been included but whose classification was uncertain. After the update of Zotero 10, this function seems to have disappeared (if it still exists, please let me know how to operate it). Currently, I have noticed that in the advanced search, one can conduct searches based on "categories", but the top-level category within it is not "My Library". If we could set "My Library" as the top-level category in the category search function, it should be able to solve my problem.

    In Zotero 10, Advanced Search just searches whatever view you're in, which can include My Library. There's also a list of recent collections in the Add to Collection menu option when right-clicking on an item, so you can switch to My Library, perform an advanced search, and quickly add items back to the collection you were just in without dragging them.

    In Zotero 11, it will be possible to open multiple library tabs/windows, which will restore the ability to perform an advanced search without switching away from your current collection.
