10.4: View two different Spotlight searches at once
Authored by: SOX on Dec 13, '05 10:10:07AM

I've noticed that if I have a search going in a finder window and then I navigate elsewhere that spotlight seems to keep on grinding in the background chewing up resources. I guess you need to stop a search before you move away. Seems like it should auto cancel itself.

Why in the world would you want a search that you started in the Finder to auto cancel while the window was still open just because you started viewing a different window?

I think he means that if he browses somewhere else in the same window, it keeps searching even though it isn't displaying the search any more.
