[QUESTION] Previous persistent selection after change some occurrence in it

[ocoka]

Hello, first of all thank's for so amazing instrument as VMP !

And I have a question: I need to somehow effectively change different words in scattered blocks, so what I've tried:

• Select one with motion in visual mode, press ENTER to create persistent selection
• Do same with other blocks
• stand on first interested word and press G-O ( occurrences highlights ) and then C to change

• after that I need to change other word in the same presistent selection , but if I press G-V, it selects some strange range a little bit beyond cursor

Do you have any ideas what I did wrong or any suggestions for that case ?!

maybe because g v is not so perfect. My suggestion is to do next g o to mark word BEFORE applying c. That works for your case? If not, give me actual text and result to let me understand scrnario correctly.
