Remove autohighlight in search & replace box #949

Open rrovetto opened 4 years ago

rrovetto commented 4 years ago

When typing in the search box to manually replace an entity IRI, within one second of not typing any longer, what you typed automatically becomes highlighted (selected).

This is a problem because it forces the user to click on the box to remove the highlight, rather than continuing to type without interruption. And it often results in the user unintentially deleting the entire search term they entered, forcing them to restart.

Please remove that autohighlight/select feature. (using Protege 5.5 on windows)
