Cancel out of starting location search
« on: April 23, 2010, 05:51:06 am »
So I'm giving DF a few search criteria for a starting position, and by the time it's examining location 11/257, it's found one that's all green, meaning all my criteria fulfilled. Still I can't just cancel and go for that one, I have to let it sit and laboriously work through the rest of the search. Wouldn't it make sense to enable the ESC key to cancel out of a starting position search whenever you want to?

It would be great if you could scroll through all the possible valid search locations, rather than being forced to the last one.

This. You could simply let the finder tick through all "zones", and then use +- to scroll through them until you found something that matched your search criteras AND your personal criterias.
