Summary: General "Find All" Bugginess
Initial Comment:
I've noticed a few bugs in the "Find All" interface:
- When there are no results found, "Find Next" prints a message at the
bottom of the screen; "Find All" jumps to a (sort of) random tab -- usually
the "Compiler Output" tab -- and gives no indication that nothing was
found.
- The highlights (underlines) in the document are robust to document
changes, but the text in the results tab is not. Just about any document
editing seems to mess the results tab up. Often, it enters a strange state
in which two lines of text are squeezed into the single allotted line, thus
clipping off the top and bottom.
- I find the "context" popup windows are often in my way, and rarely
useful. If I can immediately jump to the specific text by double-clicking,
what use is there in waiting three seconds for a popup to appear? And
then when the popups do appear, they just won't go away so that I can
read what's underneath. If there is a compelling need for more context
without actually going there, maybe a widget to change the amount of
context displayed inline is a better alternative?
