What if I'm entering text in the combo box but I decide I need to scroll back through code in the editor because I decide to copy and paste something. Now my partial search term is saved in the stack. I guess it's not that bad, but from a usability perspective hitting the Enter key is a pretty common way to signal that you're finished editing and you're ready for the editor to accept your results and do something with them. In my mind, that would include "remembering" my entry. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "spyder" group.
