Bug ID: 414526
Summary: Select pattern of last search of one editor in any
other editor
Product: kdevelop
Version: 5.4.1
Platform: Other
OS: All
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: All editors
Assignee: kdevelop-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: a...@calladium.de
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
A feature I know from MS Visual Studio is, that a full text search in one
editor can directly used in any other editor. So when I'm looking for a pattern
in one file, I can continue the search in any other editor by changing the
editor and hitting F3. Very useful.
In KDevelop each editor needs to enter the search pattern again or to select it
from the shared search pattern history. This seems to be no big action, but
once you get used to the easiness of continuing a search among many open or
opened editors (eg. together with a search in files), you will not miss it,
since it allows you to check and correct many locations very fast.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
Start a full text search with Strg+F entering any pattern. Optional repeat
search to next occurrence. Go to another editor (eg. by Strg+Tab or list from
search in files). Try to directly continue the search.
OBSERVED RESULT
It is necessary to enter or to choose the search pattern again in the new
editor.
EXPECTED RESULT
A started search in one editor should be able to be continued directly in any
other editor.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Independend.
