Find history (Ctrl F) in Scripts Eating Enter Presses

https://streamable.com/mrgwo

The find tool is using my enter presses to cycle search history instead of showing the next occurance of the inputted search term. See the video.


Repro steps: (you can follow along with it in the video too)

  1. Highlight a term in the script you want to search for
  2. Press Ctrl F, observe the term auto fill into the search box
  3. Press enter
  4. Observe the search term switch to a previously searched for term

The original desired behavior:

  1. Highlight a term in the script you want to search for
  2. Press Ctrl F, observe the term auto fill into the search box
  3. Press enter
  4. The editor highlights the next occurance of what you just filled into the search box

I can repro this 10/10 times, I’m using the most up to date version of Studio on a Windows 10 computer.

Yea, ctrl+f really doesn’t need a history or autofill on enter. This is particularly annoying when using APIs that start with the same characters. Quite easy to repro considering this looks like it’s “working as expected” right now.
