When hiding the normal unity launcher, the search button also disappears.

I'm trying to use plank instead now. I'd like to get some sort of search function fixed so I can search for apps on my computer, any ideas?

On Unity, the hotkey for search is just pressing ALT. – TheOdd Nov 01 '16 at 13:53
@OwenHines Alt brings up the command input: "type in your command". So it's not the same thing. – Karl Morrison Nov 01 '16 at 14:00
Whoops, sorry. Try your Super key (i.e. Windows key, Mac key, etc.) – TheOdd Nov 01 '16 at 14:01
@OwenHines hehe that would work. Unfortunetly my keyboard has skipped the windows key to the left (haha). So i need to have a shortcut to click on :( – Karl Morrison Nov 01 '16 at 14:02
Hmm, do you have a key that you're willing to re-assign to the SUPER key? There's a post that explains the process well here. – TheOdd Nov 01 '16 at 14:05
