The omnibox

One field for everything: addresses, web searches, your notes, your open tabs and the pages you’ve been to. Start typing and pick a result.

The omnibox, with web suggestions, notes and tabs.

Open the omnibox

ShortcutWhat it does
⌘KOpens the omnibox over whatever you’re looking at, web or notes. Or click the search button in the top bar.
⌘TShows the start page with the omnibox in it. The tab only opens once you choose something; ⌘W or Esc goes back.
⌘LEdits the current tab’s address. Clicking the active tab does the same.

What you’ll find

Before you type, the omnibox shows your latest tabs, Today and your recent notes. As you type, it offers:

  • Addresses and web searches, with suggestions from your search engine.
  • Notes and journal days, searched by their title and full text.
  • Open tabs: choose one to switch to it.
  • History: pages you’ve visited.
  • Create Note, to start a note with what you typed as its title. ⇧⌘↩ picks it straight away.

Move through the results with ↑ ↓ and press Return, or click one.

Open in a new tab

Press ⌘↩, or ⌘-click a result, to open it in a new tab, even while you’re editing the current tab’s address.

Choose your search engine

Choose Glea ▸ Search Engine, or Search engine in Glea ▸ Settings ▸ Browser, and pick Google, DuckDuckGo, Kagi or Bing. Searches and suggestions go only to the engine you chose. Incognito windows get no suggestions, so nothing is sent while you type there.

Tip

To find a note by its tag, search #tag in All Notes. See Tags.
