I know. I'm using the revert option. I honestly can't find an advantage to the non-modal search. All it seems to do is take away a feature I was using. :) > > The reason for removing 'start at top' from non-modal has been discussed on > this list (many times over) so the archives should reveal detailed reasons > for it.

That's what I read as well. Though I don't understand why that has to be the case. Why can't it work the way the modal find works - where it is reset after the first use anyway. In the modal search you have to Cmd-T to search from the top each time you enter. Otherwise you search from the current position. Once you are in the non-modal find window why couldn't the same thing be possible? Just unset the "search from top" after the first search. I guess I'm missing the logic here as to why that's not possible. doug -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "BBEdit Talk" discussion group on Google Groups.
