Why can't I refine a search the way I can a filter? - FogBugz Knowledge Exchange most recent 30 from http://fogbugz.stackexchange.com2013-06-18T05:58:26Zhttp://fogbugz.stackexchange.com/feeds/question/9114http://www.creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/2.5/rdfhttp://fogbugz.stackexchange.com/questions/9114/why-cant-i-refine-a-search-the-way-i-can-a-filterWhy can't I refine a search the way I can a filter?Slava2011-09-04T18:00:22Z2012-10-17T08:22:00Z
<p>When I use filter to select some cases in my FogBugz (for example cases that active and assigned to me) I get ordered list of all cases that matches the filter. I also can easily change the filter (e.g. instead of all cases assigned to me, select all cases assigned to John Smith)

<p>But if I want do the same via search, I can't refine the results (even if my selection was a filter - see example)</p>
<pre><code>status:"active" assignedto:"Slava [ ]" type:"cases" orderby:"Priority"
</code></pre>
<p>Result:

<p>As you can see in the second example I can't refine the filter, but I expect that the result should be the same. (because I use the meta-language as status, assignedto, etc...)
Why I can translate the search string to filter representation?</p>
<p>Thanks,
