#1922 "Find in pdf" overwrites text in editor window when "scrolling follows cursor" in multi-part document

[bers]

"Find in pdf" is pretty much unusable in multi-part-documents because the focus changes to the editor window as soon as text is found in the pdf file which corresponds to text in a tex file other than the tex file currently in the foreground in the editor window.

Steps:

• Open attached A.tex
• Compile to pdf
• Disable "cursor follows scrolling" (left icon, should be grey)
• Enable "scrolling follows cursor" (right icon, should be green)
• Focus pdf file
• Press Ctrl-F to search in that file
• (1) Type "random" in the "find" field
• Backspace-delete all the in the "find" field
• (2) Type "words" in the "find" field

Observations:

• After (1), you might have overwritten text in the editor windows iff you had another doc than B.tex focused.
• After (2), you certainly will have.
