Convert the search field into a button in the Opera Search panel

[Alexxx]

Opera is now giving the options to convert search field in to the buttons.If you want to search for same thing in different search engines, Search panel is convenient compared to integrated search field in address field.When you add a search engine to the Search panel, Opera will add search field instead of a button.

The problem with search field is you have to enter the search term again if you want to search for already entered search term in global search field. Search field can be converted in to a button easily.

To do so just go through this:-

1. Add required search engine to the Search panel from Tools > Appearance… > Buttons > Search
   
   
2. Open toolbar configuration file and under [Search Panel Toolbar.content] replace SearchX, Y with ButtonX, “Search Engine Name”=Search, Y
   
   
3. Activate modified toolbar setup from Tools > Preferences… > Advanced > Toolbars > Toolbar setup to see the changes.

Nice tip, but using the search panel in latest snapshot is crashing Opera (Windows).
