I recently upgraded to 1440 after using 1438 for a while.

Since the upgrade, OFIW is much less responsive.

In 1438, the dialog updated as I was typing, but now in 1440 I have to wait a second or so for the dialog to update. This is somewhat of an annoyance, so I wondered if this was a deliberate change in the feature as the old behavior felt much better.

The change is deliberate to improve, um, performance.

1440 delays, after each letter, before starting a search if the number of symbols is above a threshold. Our next build improves the scheme so searching is initiated without delay when you press Return (and we will wait for the search to complete before processing the return.)

Case 966 is fixed in build 1442.

When you press Return in the FSIW and OFIW dialogs, filtering begins immediately and Return is queued until filtering is done.

Let's say I open OFIW and type "foo" and hit enter. My workspace has the following files in it (among many others that don't have Foo in the name):

CFoo.cpp
CFoo.h
IFooBase.h

What happens? Does the filter apply immediately, and then I can choose from these three? Or does the filter happen and it chooses the first on the list (CFoo.cpp)?

When you press Return, VA X waits for the filtering to finish and then opens the first foo in the list of results. This behavior is desired when you know only one file with foo exists. If you aren't sure, type foo and wait until the filtering is finished.

When your lists are large, VA X waits for a delay in your typing before starting its search. This is by design. The thresholds of delay are described in topic 4162.
