Editor Search function

Post by refract »

When I right-click the "What would you like to search" I see "Cut" "Copy" and "Paste". After I paste my term, I then go down and click "Search".

It sure would be nice to see a "Paste and Search" like many browsers have. It would save a lot of clicking.

Hello refract,

Thank you for the post and request. I have spoken to the developers, and they have informed me that such a feature will not be added at this time. The general consensus is that many users will want to paste, then modify the text slightly. If you are looking to save on mouse clicks, I would recommend using CTRL+C/CTRL+V to copy/paste, and the Return (Enter) keys to search. Those are standard keyboard shortcuts within windows.

I hope this helps!

Thank you.
