On the matter of using spotlight more effectively:
I've come across a usability issue with spotlight.
Let's say I search for the word "design" in spotlight, searching for a folder.
Several come up in the dropdown, but not the one I want, so I "show all in Finder".
This finder window is a little disorganized, but since Lion, I can sort them by "kind" and segment them, allowing me to find my folder more easily.
But I still have 10 folders with the name "Design", so I end up checking them individually.
Is there another way to utilize spotlight more effectively?
I notice that in spotlight dropdown it gives me the folder name and then the location in grey (see screenshot).
Is there any way to expand the dropdown view or something to make the search process easier?
Let me know if this made no sense, thanks!
