advice2020 created an issue (geany/geany#4570) Geany offers `Find` dialog when you hit CTRL+F and `Replace` dialog when you hit CTRL+H
Both of these are floating window dialogs. At times, floating windows can really get in the way, usually being on top of found items in the typing pane so they cannot be seen, constantly requiring this dialog to be moved out of the way. -------------------------------------------------------- Suggesting to add two separate settings, one for each, that would allow these tools to be docked as a section inside of the `Messages Window` with the other sections. Could make even more sense because Geany already can send the search results into the `Messages` section of the `Messages Window`. -------------------------------------------------------- If this does get added, could use similar settings to the ones I mentioned in the `Preferences` - `Various` section That start with the prefix `interface.msgwin_` Could make 2 separate settings to show/hide `Find` section `Replace` section in the `Messages Window` If these items get a "check" = "make them visible" This would override them being used as a dialog, and make them visible in the `Messages Window` pane. -------------------------------------------------------- KEYBINDINGS Keybindings (which by default CTRL+F / CTRL+H) would perform the same as they do for these two dialog boxes, but would just open the `Message Window` to show the `Find` / `Replace` section instead of dialogs. Also when these `Message Window` is opened, these hotkeys would also bring focus in `Find` / `Replace` section, as they currently do with these two dialogs.
