[Github-comments] [geany] Find popup does not update with new highlighted text without closing and reopening it. (#758)

[elextr]

Your historical speculation is just that, and since neither of us was involved back then who knows and anyway its irrelevant.

> But anyway, my point was more generally that every time someone proposes an improvement, doesn't necessarily mean we need to add a preference to retain the old behaviour.

Of course not, we need to look at each case on its own merits, and in this case both the behaviours are useful so being able to chose is also useful.

>  I'm just trying to understand the use case where the proposed behaviour wouldn't be wanted

That is explained in a previous post.

> My opinion would be to not have it in the Find dialog for the reasons mentioned by @dmap-guru.

Well, unless @b4n states a strong preference either way, then @dmap-guru gets to choose which is implemented.
