If "any field" never contains file content, it makes less sense to have the search field auto-populate. -AHM - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

In any case if the file content index hasn't been built (as is sadly often the case with my usage) then Bibdesk isn't actually even searching file content with "any field", so it really doesn't make sense.

[Bibdesk-users] Bibdesk opening docs in Preview/Skim with unneeded searches
When I do a search in BibDesk, then click on a PDF that opens in Skim or Preview, it automatically puts in my search in BibDesk as a search in the Contents panel. While this would be useful when I'm doing a search by File Content, the rest of the time it is an unnecessary search (which slows things down if it's a scanned PDF, like one from JSTOR). Is this the intended behavior, or could it be changed? Thx -AHM - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Still grepping through log files to find problems? Stop.
