O.P. Annoying bug with Find Text window in a conversation
Yesterday, I wanted to search some text in my chat with some contact. I opened Find Text window of Plus! and wrote the text. It has just found the word I'm looking for and I became happy. However when I clicked on the Cancel button of Find Text window to read the lines which my keyword passes, it automatically went to the end of conversation. I tried again by clicking x on Find Text window, but it did the same thing. So I checked the position of the button on slide bar, and after closing the Find Text window, I manually went to that position to read text there. I have checked the same thing on Script Editor window by searching a text (which is NEW! in this version) but no problem there, when closed, page didn't go to the end.

not really a bug, would be more annoying if after you had found the text, you had to scroll back down to the bottom of the convo. and as you can read (and highlight) the text whilst the find text window is open. i can't see a problem

Then in my opinion it is a wrong design, we can already go to the end of conversation simply by clicking on [Image: attachment.php?pid=818087]

What do you think? Is current design better? Or don't you like current design too?

Bump!

Can you add this functionality with the help of Ctrl key in version 4.50?

If we keep Ctrl key pressed while closing the Find Text window, then it won't scroll to the end of Sent/Received Messages section. Thanks in advance.

When I think about it, this seems very annoying, and no other program acts like this. I mean, if you search for something, you want to see the results, you don't want it to scroll down again.

I always close windows after using them, to avoid confusion with the windows.

You could also click CTRL+END to jump to the end.
