Thanks for the report.

Again my suggestion is to reassign the shortcut and just use the Search plugin
:)

This series of bug reports clearly shows that we do have a problem when it come
to our search capabilities. Kate is built around KTextEditor which provides the
"built-in" search bar and we have Ctrl-F assigned to that search bar.
KTextEditor only knows about one document and it's search-bar only knows about
that same one document. The KTextEditor component is used in multiple different
editors that do not provide their own search capabilities, so the search bar
has to be part of KTextEditor.

But then we do have the Search plugin. This plugin again is not as minimalistic
as the built-in search bar and requires a lot more space.


Now I'm asking all developers what changes would it take to make the searh
plugin a viable replacement for the built-in search and have Ctrl-F and F3
assigned to the search plugin by default in Kate? Should we add a minimalistic
mode with only search?
