Description of the problem or steps to reproduce

When i try using the Find keybinding to search for certain text it only shows me the text i search for if its currently in the window. if its below what the text currently displayed in the window it doesnt highlight or move to it like CTRL-F usually does on websites or text editors

Find is available via ctrl-f, but you must complete your first search by pressing enter before you can use ctrl-n to findNext.
