Macro SearchDUO (searchbar dummy, icon-changer, more...)

Another dummy-searchbar, which in reality is just a normal button image, popping up a much BIGGER input field when clicked :cool:

But much more: it's fully independant, although based on the native macro, but a renamed copy. Still sharing most prefs (not all), plus some improvements:
Automatic ICON-changer (provided there's a prepared pic in the skins folder), plus the possibility to run parallel to the native search macro using another, independant default search engine, or if wished also the same engine (auto-sync), with new option to prefill the input field with the Clipboard, and a few more little gimmicks.
More infos inside, plus extended HELP options for native KM-search methods in the menu for KM newbies.
(Can't believe how big that thing has grown again. But half of it are just help novels and GUI, ouf!!)



Am just afraid this common menu to handle ALL settings of ALL search methods is slightly confusing too, but no idea yet how to improve...
At any rate remember, if a search in URLBAR is started with a simple ENTER, it will start the engine of the native search only! Which can be set with this DUO macro too, if AUTO-SYNC is enabled.

KM-Version: 1.5.4 or newer
The BUTTON size can be changed by menu.

Installation:
Unzip the attached 7z-file into your root K-MELEON folder and restart (contains kmm-file for macros folder plus a bunch of prepared engine icons for skins/default/SearchEngines)

(in newer KM delete StartupCache in Profile folder)

Update v2: little bugfix (in kmm for KMver firstrun)
