Bug ID: 137218
Summary: UI: When pressing Ctrl+F and typing, previous search
term should be replaced
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.0.0.2 rc
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
When I'm working with Calc using the keyboard, I often want to find some text
in my sheet. So, I press Ctrl+F, type in a search term, and press Enter to find
it
... but that doesn't work!
You see, if you've already searched for something, pressing Ctrl+F moves focus
to the search bar, and places the cursor after the previous search term - so
you are _appending_ to it. That does not make sense - it is very rarely what
the user wants to do.
Instead, it should be the case that Ctrl+F, then typing, replaces the search
term. The easiest way to achieve this is having Ctrl+F select the previous
search term.
This is not a new issue, I believe - it probably goes way back. Still, my build
