Update search viewlet with global search buffer text immediately

[roblourens]

Continuation of #39609

Should we update the search viewlet text immediately when the global search buffer is changed? This would mean

• The search viewlet text is changed every time the editor find widget is used
• And when the window is focused, after doing a search in another file

Currently it only is updated when the input box is selected

Thanks for continuing this, interested to see what others think.

I have an issue where cmd+e places focus on the find input after its action emits. I would think the cmd+e should populate the find input fields immediately.

You see, I dont think its the same as cmd+f, its the same as the action when one hits return in the find input field, but when I press cmd+e, I do not expect any input fields to be selected or my cursor to lose its focus.

For example I want to find some matching strings and remove the lines, so I hit cmd+e to place into bugger and then I wish to remove the line Im on, cmd+g to find another occurance, remove that line, etc.

Currently, find will receive focus after cmd+e, so my workflow breaks and I have to move cursor to the editor pane again.

I think that's what #39904 is for

thanks for linking me back to my own issue :) for some reason I thought that one had been closed.

Will consider this part of #41156, which is to consider this experience in general.
