Hello Patrick, ok I understand and I will follow your advice. Moreover mixing fulltext with other indexes in the same list is confusing for the user as it suggest that they are from the same family.
I think that having a checkbox or button to run the search on the fulltex index (setting &f=fulltext in url) should be a good alternative. I have a related question: why in advanced search the snippets are not displayed? This should allows to mix all fields and fulltext search.
