Notepad3: [feature] pressing F3 again to go to beginning

Created on 6 Jan 2021  路  6Comments  路  Source: rizonesoft/Notepad3

I suggest that when the popup "Reaching the end of the document, restarting search at the beginning" appears, pressing F3 again will be the equivalent of pressing "OK"

This is just quicker and obvious

Thanks!

enhancement / feature req. won't change

Unfortunately, this can not be achieved without major refactorings of the modal dialog-box (see on MSDN about the limited dialog box keyboard interface).
My recommendation is to use the "Don't display this message again." method to get a fluent "F3" search behavior.

ok got it thanks

In case of disabled Message-Box, a "fading out tooltip indicator for wrapped-around search" would help to recognize a finding after search wrapping start from begin/end of the document 馃 ?

I think that would work really well. What I usually want is just to know that I am now back at the beginning

Nice!

I find the text a bit too long and confusing with all the +-> at the end

Why not just "Search Wrap Around" ?
