Problem description

"Start text selection" hotkey cannot adjust highlight result after "find text" hotkey
"Start text selection" hotkey : default like "shift + Left"
is "find text" hotkey result can not effect other select hotkey?
is there any way to simulate vim "/" search select mode , like in tmux.....
or any other console tool something can quick find and copy console text without mouse in windows?(tried wsl tmux and is slow

Steps to reproduce

type "find text" hotkey
type shift + Left or shift+right

Actual results

cursor and highlight area no move

Expected results

hightlight area change by hotkey direction

That's by design. "Find text" hotkey just puts a focus on the search text field. So all keys are processed by that field, you may select text and erase its part for example.
