Closing the Find dialog from the main window

Post by miles »

I frequently remote desktop to my work machine, which has multiple monitors. If I move textpad to be visible on my remote monitor and the Find dialog is open, this is left behind and becomes irretrievable.

Can this dialog be shutdown from the main TextPad window? (or at least be forced to center/track the main window?)

Could 'Close' could have an accelerator added Alt-O???

You can close it by pressing F5 to invoke the Find command (which returns the focus to the Find dialog) and then pressing Esc (that's the accelerator you're looking for).

Or you can use follow these steps to move the dialog.
