FYI - Log Search editor is becoming multi-line

With the new query language available in Log Search, we notice user queries develop and no longer fit into just one line. To accommodate longer queries we decided to make log search a multi-line editing area:

so a few things have changed:

• Run - to run the query, click the Search icon or use the keyboard shortcut Shift+Enter. Enter no longer runs the query, as it's now a valid character you can use as part of a query, to add lines and make it more readable.
• Resize - the editing area start off with 5 lines. You can drag the bottom border to adjust the text area size to your needs.
• Intellisense - as you type, Intellisense suggestions appear beneath the editing area. To reach the suggestions area, click Tab. If the cursor is on the last row of your query, the ↓ key will also take you there. Once you've found the best suggestion, click Enter to accept it and continue editing.

Note - If you're also using the Advanced Analytics portal, you might be used to separate queries by adding new lines or marking only parts of the text to be run. Log search does not support that behavior - here your entire text is considered a single query, that is always run in its entirety.

We hope you'll find it as cool as we do. Let us know what you think and how we can further improve your experience.
