Testing version: Version 2.0 (9780) / macOS 10.15.7
What were you doing: clicking on search icon
What feature did you use: search
What happened: ‘x’ - icon in search field is not visible and search field is hiding the ‘New Note’ icon. Clicking on the right edge of the search field, closes the search.
In bear1 it is rather useful to have the option to create a new note (clicking on the visible icon), while searching for something.
