In the search pane (Ctrl+F), for example, when searching for both the uppercase ‘M’ and the lowercase ‘m’ (with ‘Case sensitive’ ticked, of course), if you try to type the lowercase ‘m’ after searching for the uppercase ‘M’, the autocomplete feature kicks in and automatically enters the uppercase ‘M’.
You can search for ‘m’ by clearing the history or by typing something like ‘Mm’ and then deleting the ‘M’, but this is fiddly and inconvenient.
Is there an option to disable the autocomplete feature in the search pane?
Is there a way to turn off the autocomplete feature in the search pane?

Hi Buntschann,
I'm afraid there is no way to disable that at the moment.
Kind regards,

Hi,
How can I submit a request for a new feature to be considered?
