PI Vision display search should return results from subfolders

With the PI Vision display search bar, the filter will only search among displays that can already be seen in as display thumbnails. Searching "within a selected folder" should also include results from any child folders as these are a sub-sets of the parent folder. The current behavior where you must already be looking at a display thumbnail to be able to find it is un-intuitive and makes folders a less useful organizing feature User Guide: Create folders https://docs.osisoft.com/bundle/pi-vision/page/create-folders.html Search for an existing display https://docs.osisoft.com/bundle/pi-vision/page/search-for-an-existing-display.html

    There is the option to search from the "All Displays" view but that requires a lot more filtering since searching through all available displays. Would be nice to have an "Include Subfolders" check box (around where the Show Private Displays checkbox is located) or something so that searches could include results of displays on the hierarchy from the folder they have selected downward into the child/subfolders. This would make the search a little more flexible and not require users to get to the exact folder containing the display they are looking for as they might not know that. Could uncheck this option if they want the search to behave the way it does now and just include displays in that exact folder.
