Re: findSelection: Not repeating search

"presumably because text is no longer selected" is correct.
You could Window > Preferences > LPEX Editor > Find Text > check "Select found text" to keep reselecting the string in question.

Just installed WDsc 6.0 on a brand new PC.  All fixes applied.
I bound findSelection to Ctrl-Shift-I. It finds the next occurrence of the selected text.
But pressing C-S-I again doesn't continue the search, presumably because text is no longer selected. Being able to move forward through the source this way would seem to be a useful feature.
I believe that in version 5 it would repeat the find. Or am I imagining things? Or is there something else that I have to set up?
