I am using Realm Studio a lot to update or search for existing entries in a rather large database. I have to type and fill in a lot of simple queries that all look very similar: "name like 'something'" or "ean like '12345'. Whenever I switch views, I have to re-type these queries and also to re-apply the previously selected column-sorting (which is bugging me, because I have to scroll quite far to the right to find the relevant column). It would be very handy to have a solution for this, because it is rather annoying and time-consuming.
What solutions I could imagine for sorting (descending in preference):
1) Entering an alpha-numeric-string gets automatically used as filter for all string fields of the table via wildcard search (in case this is slow, it could be an "easy mode" option)
2) Entering a number gets automatically used as a filter for all numeric (match) or string fields (wildcard) of the table (in case this is slow, it could be an "easy mode" option)
4) Keeping previously entered search-strings for each table when switching the UI between different tables
3) Storing/selecting pre-made search patterns to easily select from last used to only replace the specific string/number-values
What solution I would prefer for table-column-sorting:
1) Keeping the selected column and sort-mode alive for all tables, even when switching back and forth between them.
