    How to jump to filter with search box with keyboard shortcut?

    Hi. It takes a lot of time to use arrows to reach the search box in the menu which appears after right-clicking a filtered heading. All others menu items have shortcut (like "S" for sort A to Z). Similarly, is there a way to jump to the search box? or maybe we can shift the box to the top? Any help is appreciated.

    Why not left click on the down arrow?

    Left clicking the down arrow only opens up the filter menu. Once that menu is open, I want a shorcut to jump to the search box where I can filter by search. Pls see the attachment - I want to quickly move to the circled box with a shortcut. Or perhaps there is a way to move that bar to the top of the menu??

    I just did this with a file I had handy:

    Alt + down arrow presents the menu drop down.
    Type "e" (without quotes) puts the cursor in the Search box.
