Every time I search for a manufacturer part or cable reference, the search tool already has filters in it that I don't need (i.e. the seach tool already has the class "Connectors" specified, the cable references search tool already specifies "size standard" as mm^2 which is a real problem since we only use AWG).
I have to click "remove filters" for every single search I make. Over time, this has costed me hours of extra button pressing.
I'd like to make it so there's no filters when I pull up the search tool. Is there a way to change the default filters on a search?
I'm not sure if there is a way to change the default filters, but they tend to follow the symbol you're currently working with.
To save time in switching symbols, I have them classified in certain ways to make things go faster. For all of my common parts, I generally just change the class filter, and my symbol is there. For doing things like relay logic, I have them all in the same class, so switching between them is super quick. See picture.
As for looking up parts, are you referencing the "Add a manufacturer part" in the cabinet layout? That I haven't figured out yet, mine defaults to coils every time.
