Feature Request: Find Position Counter

Open dverzolla opened this issue 3 months ago • 1 comments

Current issue

Position counter (e.g., "1/10", "2/10") to the Find/Replace does not exist.

The solution you'd like

It would be very helpful if the Find/Replace panel displayed a counter for the current match position.

For example, if there are 10 total matches for a search term, the panel could show "1/10" when the first match is selected. Pressing Enter to find the next occurrence would then update the counter to "2/10", and so on. This provides quick context of your position within the search results.

Thank you for the feedback. While I find it convenient, I'd like to lower its priority since it's not very common in the macOS world and the implementation seems more complicated than expected.
