Allow searching for the next occurrence when the Find window is closed #686

Open lanurmi opened 3 years ago

lanurmi commented 3 years ago

When the Find window is open, one can search for the next occurrence of the search term by pressing Ctrl+G (and similarly the previous with Ctrl+Shift+G).

However, when the Find window is closed, the corresponding menu items are disabled, and Ctrl+G no longer does anything.

In e.g. MS Visual Studio, searching for the next occurrence of the previously used search term works whether or not there's a search field or dialog visible. This is pretty convinient, and I use that a lot myself. The same even works in Windows Notepad.

+1 to this.

Could be very useful, as a blind user, when navigating with the keyboard and using mainly the focus move to get information.

Is there any ETA for this request?
