Settings Dialog & Real-Time Search¶

The Settings dialog features an integrated real-time search bar at the top of the category navigation tree.

If no matching preference is found, an empty state displays with a one-click Clear Search button to quickly restore full visibility.

Keyboard shortcut displays in the editor automatically adapt to your operating system, rendering macOS-native symbols (Cmd, Opt, Shift) or Windows/Linux keys (Ctrl, Alt, Shift).
