On 12 Jul, I opened issue #9120 because VSCode got the behavior that find in selection is off by default if I press ctrl+F with a multiline selection. Then it was fixed soon at that time.
But now, VSCode got the behavior again in v1.7.1 because of #12109.

I prefer that find in selection is on by default if I press ctrl+F with a multiline selection.
I know some IDE/editors are behaving so.

  • Visual Studio 2013
  • eclipse
  • Sublime Text

In Sublime Text case, it has auto_find_in_selection option. I can switch the behavior.
I think good if Visual Studio Code also has the option to configure the behavior.

Thank you.

I'll add my desire for this feature to be added - I run across this on a daily basis - several times a day, in fact... The fact that Visual Studio has this behaviour (find in selection autoselected with a pre-existing multiline selection) just exacerbates that...

It was fixed by adding the setting 'editor.find.autoFindInSelection'
