    • Snipe can be turned on/off at any point. Turning it on/off does NOT affect the search itself (doesn't clear it). In other words, the 'snipe' option changes how the 'search' filter behaves. It is a modification of a search filter function.

    • Tasks in the Infobar are NOT highlighted.

    Note: If a filer option Show basic tasks (filters don’t apply) is active, all basic tasks are included in the search results. When you snipe between the tasks, basic tasks are included in the rotation (even when they don’t match the search query).
