[GNC] Search within search not opening new tab

[Adrien Monteleone]

I find searches tend to work best from the CoA tab. Often a register search doesn’t turn up known transactions that match my criteria.

You can use more than one criteria in a search.

If you want to keep a more broad search result open while you conduct a more narrow one, do the second search from the CoA tab again, *not* from the previous search results tab. (which would replace and refine, as you have discovered)

Note too, I just tested this on 3.7, so not sure how 3.4 performs there.

Regards,
Adrien
