Hi,

I presume you have f3 bound to find selected.  To continue you need to
use find next for the second and subsequent finds.  In the default
Geany thats bound to Ctrl-G so the sequence is:

highlight f3 Ctrl-V Ctrl-G Ctrl-V Ctrl-G Ctrl-V etc

You can of course bind find-next to whatever you want.

Cheers
Lex
