In today’s Movie Connect update, a smart tweak to the “Title” tab of the Add Movies screen that will save you a lot of typing.
When you start typing in the Title box, it has always showed you a dropdown with 5 matching movie suggestions to pick from. But in today’s update, we added a new “Search for …” entry at the top of that dropdown, with a smart auto-completed search suggestion.
Click that box (or hit down arrow on your keyboard, then Enter) to do a search for that auto-completed search term.
In the example below, just type “tra” and the “Search for” suggestion becomes “transformers”. Hit that to instantly find all Transformers movies.
