Comment:
I think the current implementation in 2.6 beta is no good.
Lets say I have inserted the following text in the editor:
************************
hello
this is a test
hello
this is a test
hello
**************
If I now place the cursor somewhere inside the
first occurence of "this is a test" and then click the
Find button, and then type "hello" in the "Find what" textbox, then this
happens:
The find routine start searching first from the very beginning of the
content of the editor, even if my current cursor position is not in the
beginning of the text.
So first "hello" found is actually above my curren cursor postion in the
text.
To me, it looks that this implementation was a "quick and dirty" fix to
manage to find all the occurences of the word sought (compared to previous
implementations).
************ HERE IS A BETTER IMPLEMENTATION (IMHO) **********************
1.
The "find routine" should start searching from the current cursor position
in the text.
2.
And then, if word sought was not found untill end of editor, then it
should start from the top of the editor, automatically without any
questions asked.
3
And then when searched all the text untill "find routine" again comes to
the place where the cursor position is, then the user should get a message
asking something like this:
All text has been searched, do you want to continue searching?
If you then confirm (you want to continue searching), then the Find dialog
should not close, and you should be able to continue hitting the Find
button in the search dialog.
I find it truly annoying that the find routine start from the beginning of
the editor if my current cursor position is somewhere else in the editor.
A truly strange search implementation that is....
Just my 5c
