find all next window

Post by Rick James »

I have lots of windows open (too many to tile). I want to find a string in all the open files. Find "In all documents" acts like it does nothing. Find Next only finds in the current window. Help suggests using Next/Previous window (Ctrl-F6), but that simply cycles among all windows, not just the ones with search hits.

Find Next should (1) bring the window that exists to the front, and (2) interact with "Wrap Searches" so that it walks thru all windows before wrapping.
