Persistent selection in the IDE
Posted: Fri Apr 01, 2022 4:23 pm
Hello,
When you double-click on a word in the IDE, all occurrences are highlighted, but this highlighting is removed as soon as you click elsewhere.
Is there a function in Scintilla that keeps this highlighting active until you manually deactivate it?
A function exists in Notepad++ where it is possible to mark all occurrences of a searched text ("Mark" tab in the search window). This marks stay until click "Clear all marks"
As Notepad++ also uses Scintilla, this feature may be native?
