Allow to select entry if window not found on auto-type #429
Copy link

Description
This is a feature request.
Expected Behavior
- Select a window for which no auto-type is configured
- Press the global auto-type shortcut
- (optionally: unlock your database)
- Select an entry in your database to be auto-typed
Current Behavior
instead of 4. there is a warning message like "could not find an entry with matching window title", which can only be dismissed with "OK".
Possible Solutions
- open the main window, to select an entry. however, if selecting would instantly auto-type, this could be unexpected to the user (especially if the window doesn't differ at all from the normal window)
- open a dialog with the entry-tree. this could get huge & messy, though
- open a search/filter box, displaying matching entries as you type in a dropdown list. So you'd e.g. type
git, which displays entries for github and gitlab, then use the arrow keys to select the one you want, then press enter to select & auto-type it.
