Top Feedback Summary for March 31

OK, here's a confirmation of what the problem is as above...

You can only change the New Tab Page search box if you change the default URL Box search engine. 
In other words, if your default URL Box search engine is Bing, you cannot change the search engine in the New Tab Page search box.

Example scenario: One may want to keep their URL Box search engine as Bing, the recommended default, because it integrates well with the Windows operating system and the Edge Browser.
However, they may want the New Tab Page search box to be something different. 

Having a different search engine on the New Tab Page would mean that one would have easier access to another, knowing that the 2nd one on the New Tab Page.

Possible solutions and improvements:
First of all, correct the original feature so that the New Tab Page can have it's search engine change, regardless of what the default search engine is in the URL Box.
A further improvement, would be to change search engines in the URL Box, as "on the fly". This would mean that, regardless of the default search engine in the URL Box, one would just need to click onto the icon of search engine they want.
A final improvement, would be to also change the New Tab Page search box as "on the fly". 

Things to consider:
By allowing the "on the fly" search option in the URL Box, this might make using multiple search engines convenient enough, so that if the search box was removed on the New Tab Page, it would not be amiss, and the extra space could be appreciated elsewhere. 
Less reliance on the New Tab Page as a search engine, could mean that a alternative search box could be provided. One suggestion would be to have a icon list of the users search engines and a click of one of them could automatically open up that said search engine in the URL Box, ready for you to type your query and hit enter to begin the search.
A further option to consider, would be to allow grouping of search engines from one URL. Say for instance, Bing, it has options to search images, videos, maps et al. Even though a regular search from Bing would provide links to search from these options, it would be easier to be able to search Bing Images straightaway if that was what I was after. Having this option would mean that you could save more space seeing as each icon would be taking up too much room, especially with some sites, like Facebook which has a multitude of options. The problem with this is that most search engines would keep the same Favicon and for convenience, this may slow things down. 

That's it for now, if I go any further, then I would be discussing a option to have a Microsoft startpage which would be fully customizable, but that should do for another thread much further down the line. 

Hope this helps clarify some things and I hope some of the other ideas give you a little chin wag to have. 

Peace out!
