Description David Simonek 2007-10-01 09:46:02 UTC 
Steps to reproduce:

1) Open some java source in editor, press Ctrl+F to invoke find "stripe"
2) type text to find, text is found and selected in editor

What key combination now should I use to jump to found text? All F3, Shift+F3 and Enter keys just move to next/previous
found text. Whoa, only Esc can do it...weird. (I couldn't figure it out, I had to ask colleagues...)

My suggestion is to add Ctrl+Enter to jump into found text and mention it in the tooltip. However feel free to consult
with your UI guy, of course, I can be wrong.

moving opened issues from TM <= 6.1 to TM=Dev
Comment 3 Max Sauer 2008-11-14 09:27:44 UTC 
Esc seems to be a common way for this according to UI. Closing this one as WONTFIX.
