Quick Find bar finds only first instance?

[semigeek]

I've always used ^F to bring up the findbar on a webpage, but have been trying out the "just start typing" feature. Unfortunately it only finds a first instance, there's no arrow for the next. Has it always been this way? Is there a config option to change it?

F3.
(And Shift+F3.)

Thanks! Still not sure how useful I'll find QF, but that helps.

Note the you can use CSS rules in userChrome.css to make those other controls visible on the Quick Find bar.

Code: Select all

.findbar-container > *, .findbar-container > hbox > * {display:-moz-box}

In Firefox 69 and later you need to set toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets to true on the about:config page to enable userChrome.css and userContent.css in the chrome folder.

Thanks, that's great. Since all I really wanted was to see the [v] [^] buttons, not the checkboxes, I've used this. The QF bar remains visible as long as I'm clicking them. and the count ("2 of 11") displays too.

Code: Select all

.findbar-container > hbox > toolbarbutton {display: -moz-box}
