There are a couple things in the search experience different than Vim that break my expectations as a Vim mode user that I wish would match Vim's behavior more closely:
n, Zed doesn't search for the same pattern in pane B (it defaults to not searching at all if no search has happened on pane B before). In Vim, the search pattern is global, so in this case the pattern used in pane A would automatically be used on pane B as well. And if you search for a new term on pane B, the pane A search pattern would update as well in Vim (because the pattern is global), but not Zed.C-rfollowed by"simply gives me"when the search field is focused. I think the search field should work as Vim in insert mode, similar to the experience you get after pressing/or:in Vim in the prompt line. This point is more broadly applicable to any Zed UI surface outside of the editor, and not just the search field.Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
