Control f select input

Hi Y'all,

 

I've got a question that I cannot find an answer to. I'm quite the fast worker and use the control + f function quite a lot. The 'problem' I'm running into is that I have to manually select my previous search word and then start typing a new search word (losing those precious seconds and getting my out of my workflow...! ;) ). I was wondering if I can maybe change my settings somewhere so that when I press control + f my previous input is automatically selected and I can instantly start typing a new search word. 

 

 

Would love to hear a solution (if there is one)!

 

Cheers,

 

Jurre

    Hi Jurre

    If you are doing multiple finds, the suggestion I'd make is to press Ctrl + Shift + left arrow. This will select all text and you can immediately type in a new search term.

    It's the fastest way I can think of to do it!

    Cheers
    Damien
