When I want to open an application via Dash, I just hit Super, type the first letters, and hit Enter. For instance: Super, "drop", Enter to start Dropbox. However, if I want to start an application again, Dash remembers it, but I cannot start it by hitting ENTER although "drop" is still in there, and Dropbox is in the first position. Why?
How can I (without using the mouse) start an application again?
UPDATE:
better example (hopefully):
- Super ... type "ged" ... Enter to start Gedit
- close Gedit
- Super ... and now? "ged" is remembered, Gedit is still in pole position ready to be started. However, hitting Enter does not work.
How can I start an application again? - Without using the mouse or retyping?
If I have to retype, it makes no sense that Dash remembers the application and my typed letters. I assume there is a way to open the application again by just: Super + Enter (or something similar). Thanks!
Removed previous answer as I was on 13.04
As far as 12.10 - As long as the mouse cursor isn't in the Dash when you re-open the Dash then the previous search should still be active, (blinking curosr bar) & enter should again open your 1st listed app
