When using Find in Files the search results are sent to the Search Window - giving an easy to read list.

When using the Find there is only the option to mark all which involves scrolling through the document - could the ability to send to the search window be added?

There is a work around, i.e. specify the file in Find in Files (or even scroll through the list of all files), but this involves me typing - an extra button in Find (like Mark All) would be far better especially as all the functionality is already there!

My own personal view is that the search tool for open documents could present results more intuitively. This issue does keep cropping up, see:

I use a workaround to find the first instance and this is covered in one of these threads. Like you, I prefer to use Find in Files. I suspect Helios will have logged the issue too and we just need to wait now.

I've created a poll on this topic, see here:-
