Trying to use [playground seach](https://doc.babylonjs.com/playground) but looks it doesn’t work. How to use it?  
Whatever I choose it doesn’t work…

It works on my end:

Sorry for the dumb question but you did hit enter, right? It is not auto search while you type.

It doesn’t work without a keyboard.

On my tablet and phone, “next” shows as the “enter” key when typing text into the search bar. But when I hit that key on the (soft) keyboard, the “Search Type” dropdown is highlighted and the keyboard goes away. I can select from that dropdown, but I have never found a way to execute a playground search on tablet or phone.

Oh, that’s why it didn’t work for me for the first time 😀 but when I plugged a physical keyboard to my tablet then it started to work but I didn’t realize why it started to work 😀
