Shift+F3 is stuck in current file
F3 + "Search Next File" will cycle forwards through files. But Shift + F3 does not have the equivalent toggle to also go backwards through files.
As a solution, I'm thinking the toggle "Search Next File" could be reworked to go forwards as well as backwards and renamed as "Search Whole Project" or something.
I have a vague memory that some new search stuff is coming (global search?). Maybe this issue will be solved there and this report is moot.
Yeah, this is not a bug. It only moves forward between files, but it loops back at the end of the project. I can't remember if there was a reason why I didn't let it move to previous file.
In any case, yes, there is a global search tool coming: #894
