Bug while searching in WeBuilder?

[davenz]

Hi team

I stumbled upon something in WeBuilder 2011 latest build that may or may not be a bug; can anyone share their thoughts on this?

When using the find dialogue, if I search for a word in the code view, I can hit 'Find All' and the results list displays as expected in the messages window (at the bottom of the screen on my setup). However, if there are, say, 5 instances of the word and I start a new search (close the find dialogue and reopen it, selecting the last search from the drop down list) and step through all 5 using 'Find Next', then click 'Find All', even with 'entire scope' checked, after searching the messages window opens empty. Whether by design or a bug, 'Find All' does not find anything past the cursor after all instances have been already "found" using 'Find Next'. I would have expected this function to find and list all instances of the search term regardless of whether I has just stepped through them or not, especially with 'entire scope' checked. Thoughts on this?

Dave, sorry but it works for me.

I tried many ways to change this behavior but always get the expected results. Maybe if you publish a screen cast of the issue.

Dave,
Rather than vague titles like "Another bug?" or "WeBuilder Issue", could you use descriptive subjects like "Bug while searching in WeBuilder" ? It would help when later referring to topics.

Thanks!

Well spotted, I've changed the tread title accordingly,
Cheers,

Ta. I've done that previously, but rather than keep clearing up after the kids, its time for them to earn their pocket money and clear their rooms themselves!
