BUG: "Find in page" automatically inputs text when it is not supposed to...
-
@TsunamiZ No bug here.
The Find in Page dialog should remember previously typed text if nothing is selected on the page.
What is a regression, is that the input text is not remembered on new tabs.
-
it is not even remembering correctly. if you change the typed text, it wrongly remembers the old text.
also, the behavior should be an option.

-
after the initial "find in page" word, type a new text in it, press ESC to close it, then reopen it, you will see the old text instead.
-
@TsunamiZ Sorry, but I have no more time to waste debugging your bug reports.

Can't confirm.
Select text > Find (searches for selected text)
Close FIP
Scroll page
CTRL-F shows above selected text
Enter new text > search
Close FIP
Scroll page
CTRL-F, shows text entered aboveV_5.5.2805.38

regarding the bug of "find in page" remembering wrong, this is how i test it...
- double click a text to select it on the page
- press CTRL+F to open "find in page", and the text is auto highlighted on the page
- type a new text in the "find in page" field, and the new text is auto highlighted on the page
- press ESC to close "find in page"
- press CTRL+F to reopen it
- in the "find in page" field, you will see the old text instead of the newly typed text

fox.
To skip lenghty explanations, it may be easier just to record bug reproduction next time (with OBS Studio for example).
And when it is impossible to deny that bugs exists, next best choice will be just to ignore you. -

Yes, easier for testers to check issues, sometimes text descriptions are not enuff!
-
Visual cues can help with explanation but I think in this instance the data being tested against is as important; like others I could not reproduce the issue initially.
-
updated first post.
thanks for confirming. please also upvote the first post to help get some attention on it.
-
@TsunamiZ, AFAIK upvote data only has affect on feature requests; if I am mistaken please let me know.
-
officially, yes. but any topic with upvotes will naturally help get more attention on it--just like everything else that is votable on the internet.

It seems pressing the up/down search arrows is the difference. If you don't press anything and only enter the text then word #1 will show as it seems the text entered doesn't get saved.
Looks like the text entry might only be saved when the initial search is done and when pressing the arrows. Closing FIP doesn't save the entered text.
