New Kontakt 8 Left Pane Browser should allow search across libraries

Saw that analytics were being added about Classic Browser vs the new one in Kontakt 8, so I figured I'd give direct feedback.

Love that the new left pane browser in Kontakt 8 allows audio previews; don't love, at all, that I can't search the whole library unless I click the "library" tab to bring up the full page browser. Just let me search from the whole library in the left pane please!

And also please give me a way to access my custom sample folders there; there are too many sample developers that don't use native access to just pretend they don't exist. Give us a way of getting to them without having to change to the classic interface if you want me to keep using the new UI.

    Yeah it would be good if it had a search bar - however if you have added custom libraries using the import function in the Library browser they should show in the side pane too - at least they do for me

    Oh thanks for the tip. Did have to stare at the interface for 10 minutes before realizing the cog menu in the lower left is where the import function is (naturally I checked the file menu first). But this helps!
