[361] UI glitch with cmd.find

Post by zarkogajic »

Hi Support,

Here's a small UI glitch for us nitpickers :)

The "Find" command does not properly update its state (find dialog visible/not) when:

1. Load a document. Look at the (not active) Find button:

2. Click "Find" to activate / display the find dialog:

The find button displays as "checked" / "active" or however we call this.


Now close the find dialog by clicking "x":

The "Find" button remains in "checked" / "active" state *until you move your mouse over it*.

So: find button does not update its state when find dialog is closed.

Hi Zarko.

Thanks for the post and report. Are you definitely seeing this in 9.3.361.0?

I tried reproducing this and it seems correct to me. See my screen grab. I take it that is it not working this way for you?

Hi Paul,

Figured out: the glitch happens only if I'm using the Editor when Remotely (Remote Desktop Connection) connected to machine with Editor.

HI Paul,

Thanks.

Btw, a suggestion: make "find" button toggle: click to display find dialog, click again to close it.

Hello, zarkogajic

By default, Ctrl+F will open the find menu, as you are aware, meanwhile, pressing Esc will close it whilst in focus.
We have seen some requests to make both find and search buttons toggle their respective options open and closed, and the Dev team is aware, but I cannot promise when/if that may be implemented.

Kind regards,
