How do I change search default from START WITH to CONTAIN for custom field on interaction?

[Dk nov]

Hello Everyone,

How do I change search default from START WITH to CONTAIN for one of the custom fields on Interaction?

Sys properties glide.ui.ref_ac.startswith is already turned off.

Thanks

1. Disable the glide.ui.ref_ac.startswith system property.
   For more information, see Improve auto-complete queries.
   
   Note: Setting the glide.ui.ref_ac.startswith system property to true overrides any existing "autocomplete.contains" settings in both user and system-level preferences. This property changes the auto-complete query method for all users regardless of preferences.
2. Navigate to User Administration > User Preferences.
3. Select the preference "'<referenced table>.autocomplete.contains"'.
4. Set the value field to true.
