Bernard updated NETBEANS-1220:

Description:
Problem Description
I use the following out of two options:
In Tools|Options|Editor|Search|Editor Search Behavor|Enter find next
With this option enabled, I need to press [Esc] to locate the cursor at the
first instance, meaning that I do NOT use the [Enter] key. Unfortunately this
use results in the search string not being pushed into the search history list
where I type the search string. Therefore, in future searches, the search
string cannot be looked up from the search string combo box.
How to reproduce:
- In Tools|Options|Editor|Search|Editor Search Behavor|Enter find next
- locate the cursor at the top of a Java file
- [Ctrl+F]java[Esc] locates the cursor at the first instance of "java",
typically in the import section
- [Ctrl+F]util[Esc] locates the cursor at the first instance of "util",
typically in the import section
Expected behavior:
- [Ctrl+F][Down] should find the string "java" in the list
Actual behavior:
- [Ctrl+F][Down] shows a list with the string "java" missing from the list
This means that the Editor Search Behavior option "Enter find next" is
crippled, and it is difficult to create a harmonious work flow while
refactoring code. In simple terms, it is frustrating.
