NAME
RT::Extension::PreviewInSearch - preview tickets right from search
results page

DESCRIPTION
RT's query builder (the ticket search interface) allows you to customize
all of the columns that show up in search results, so you can usually
customize a search and get all of the ticket metadata you need displayed
on the search results page (e.g., current status, queue, owner, etc.).
But sometimes you also need to see something from the history when you
are looking for a ticket. This extension allows you to view the history
of tickets at the bottom of the search results page without clicking
over to the full display ticket page.

With the extension installed, perform your search, then click anywhere
in the ticket row in the search results. The history for that ticket
will be displayed at the bottom of the page. With RT 5, if you have
inline edit enabled for some search fields, click anywhere outside the
inline edit fields. You'll see the pencil icon appear if you are in an
inline edit area.

To make it easier to see the ticket history with less scrolling, you can
set the Rows per page setting on the search to a smaller number. A
"$SideBySidePreview" mode is also available.
