Systems and methods are provided for a user interface with an automatic search menu. The interface exposes commands to the user as instantly searchable hierarchy. Visually, this is represented as a tree view with an edit box above it. There is no "Search" or "Go" button to press. One second after any character is entered in the edit box, the computer reduces a displayed hierarchy down to only those items that match the keyword entered. Entering another character before one second expires resets the timer. This allows the user to type in as little or as much of the keyword as necessary to reduce the hierarchy to a few items, one of which can then be mouse-clicked. This method scales to large number of commands.
