I noticed if I do a search from the toolbar and press return, it finds the word, but focus remains in the search bar. Isn't there a way to have it automatically set the focus to the text and then I can use keyboard shortcuts to go from the current instance to the next/prev.
I think this would be more intuitive:
1. Keyboard shortcut to the search toolbar. 2. Type a word. 3. Press enter and get taken to the first word with the focus on it. 4. Use other shortcuts to go from next/previous 5. Use the keyboard shortcut again to return to the toolbar to change the search term.
I did things this way all the time before. In geany, it looks like I have to use another shortcut in between?
1. Keyboard shortcut to the search toolbar. 2. Type a word. 3. Press enter and get taken to the first word *but focus remains in the toolbar*. 4. *Press a shortcut to get to the editor* 5. Use other shortcuts to go from next/previous 6. Use the keyboard shortcut again to return to the toolbar to change the search term.
Even if people like the latter way, maybe it could be a checkbox option in preferences?
What do you guys think?
Thanks,
Steve
