Not sure if that would be possible. Navigation in fullscreen mode works differently than navigation in desktop mode. This is not something I am looking into right now, and I don't really plan to either, sorry about that.

Yes, it is possible and I might add this in the next update.
But, it is not covered by the Playnite API, and as such there are no guarantees that it will continue to function in future updates as well.

I just saw the post on reddit on what you would need that for. If all you need it for is that, and don't care about it not looking right and not having support for controllers and an on-screen keyboard, then I could enable it for fullscreen mode. But I won't put in an option for it in the UI, as it is really not optimized for fullscreen mode. I can add an option in the config.json file that you can toggle to enable QuickSearch in fullscreen mode.
I uploaded a build with that option included, but it is disabled by default.

You just need to set "EnableInFullscreenMode" to true in the config.json for QuickSearch while Playnite isn't running. This option will only appear once Playnite exited after it started with the new version.

Thanks, it works nearly perfectly! The only issue right now is it displays the current highlighted game's icon when launching the game instead of the actual game i'm launching. Not really sure if there's a fix for that. Besides that though, the script works perfectly in fullscreen! Thanks so much, this makes automation with google assistant so much easier!

That looks nothing like it should. Does the same thing happen with the default theme?

This seems to be an issue with the Magpie GBV (Extended) Theme. I am getting the same behavior with that theme.

Then make sure to let the dev of the theme know. Maybe there is something that can be done on the theme side.

Should be fixed in the latest update.
RE: QuickSearch - Launch Games and Run Commands by Search - poetickatana - 04-27-2022
Have you considered implementing a StartPage view for QuickSearch?
I think it would be a nice addition to StartPage. I know you can bring up QuickSearch using the keyboard shortcut, but having it built in and being able to reposition the search bar seems like a plus.
I imagine there could be an issue with multiple instances of QuickSearch running if one is active in StartPage and the user brings up another instance manually.... So, maybe not so straightforward.

I already thought about it. Kind of ironic in way, because part of the reason I added the ability to add views from other extension was that I didn't want to add and maintain views that use other extensions... anyway, the bigger problem for this is the way QuickSearch was written. Logic, data and visuals are somewhat tightly coupled (not the right way to do it, but it worked at the time), resulting in one big complex component. So taking out single components is not really as easy as it could be. I would have to refactor the whole thing first, which is not fun as you spent a lot of time just so that everything looks exactly like it did before.
A compromise that would work would be a simple search box that opens the usual QuickSearch view as soon as you start typing.
RE: QuickSearch - Launch Games and Run Commands by Search - Mellified - 05-08-2022
Since the last update QuickSearch no longer displays results from the search box - whether called in Playnite, outside Playnite, or via StartPage. I've tried turning off integration settings and removing and re-installing QuickSearch - the problem remains.

It's working perfectly for me. The only bit of strangeness I've noticed is that the games details view doesn't show up when QS is used via StartPage, but maybe that's by design.

It actually tells me more than you might think. The problem likely happens when creating the searchable items, maybe some unexpected characters in some games name causes problems. Also, there is no error message regarding the scoring, so the problem must lie before that happens.
I will add more error checks at the places I suspect could cause problems. In the meantime, maybe just check whether the search threshold is set too low. Maybe it got corrupted at some point.
