When the text is found, the text found is not selected : that makes it difficult to discover where it has been found, since only the blinking caret shows that place. With low zoom level, this carret can be very small. When the found text were selected, it would be easyer to see what has been found. That's the way it is usually done.

On a multi frame linked text frames, after clicking 'Search' a few times, then the answer shows each end of frame, but there is no search text there.

On a multi frame linked text frame, it is not possible (or i could not manage to do it) to follow the display when iterating searches across multi-pages linked text frame. The display jumps to the page where the text has been found, but in case there is a big zoom, this is not enough : the display port should also jump to the place IN THE PAGE where the text has been found, so as to show the display text (in case the zoom is to big, the found text is not displayed, this is 0011369). Moreover sometime it jumps to pages but the carret does not seem to be blinking anywhere.

When searching for a expression, editing is not any more possible. So we have to get out of search mode, edit and open back the search. While doing so, all previous search parameters are lost : they should be proposed by default (the reset button allready exists as 'clear form').
AND/OR would it be possible to enable edit with search dialog kept open ? or at least to change zoom and scroll ?

It would be nice to have 'previous' also.

And 'Search' would becore 'Next' in case a result allready has been found.

There are 2 search inputs. I thought at first it was an innovative feature to be able to search 2 textes at once ! But after a while i understood it's for replacing feature. 'Replace with' would be a better label.

As for now, 'replace' and 'replace all' cause a sig11 crash.
