[Fixed] Inconsistency in Search with Ctrl+Shif+F

Pressing Ctrl+Shif+F with a text selected will search the selected text only if the Search tab on the left bar is already open.

If another tab is open, pressing Ctrl+Shif+F will open the Search tab and will ignore the selected text.


(This has bothered me for a long time. I wasn’t able to figure out why sometimes it would use the selected text and sometimes it wouldn’t. I finally understand. Feels good.)

Thanks @stefano.menci we’ll get that fixed

Note: Pressing Ctrl+Shift+F with no selected text does have a use: to resume work on the previously-found items. So I hope we don’t lose that in the process.

that behaviour remains the same and wasn’t broken :smiling_face:

@stefano.menci had identified a race condition where the selected text wasn’t being searched if the search pane was currently closed.
