F3 (find next) and Shift+F3 (find previous) work in many other editors. F3 continues to work in version 7.8.9, but Shift+F3 stopped working: it just does nothing.
I don't know what was the last version I had where Shift+F3 worked for me.
The comments explain it, so here's a summary. Shift+F3 works (v7.9.5) if you last searched with Normal or Extended mode. It doesn't work if the last search was with Regular expression mode.
The reason, to quote AdrianHHH, is:
Reverse searching for a Regex has been disabled because of problems in some cases. See item 10 in the 7.8.7 Release notes. See also this forum topic. I believe that the Notepad++ forum has had a longer discussion of the topic, but I cannot find it now.

I have recently started using Autokey on a Raspberry Pi. I have it installed and operating as expected. The one issue I have encountered for which I cannot find a solution is that I would like to use the backtick key to trigger text expansion.
I have used back tick key previously with other text expansion/hotkey utilities (namely I used it with AutoHotkey on a Windows machine for years). I prefer to have a trigger key to avoid any unexpected triggers. I am so used to using the backtick key that I hit it instead of Tab. I chose the back tick key a decade or more ago for this purpose because I seldom use it (whereas Tab I use constantly). That muscle memory is a hard thing to go against.
I cannot find this discussed anywhere in the documentation and had no luck searching for an answer around the webs. I dug around in the Autokey program files, but didn't find anything so far. Seems like choosing a custom trigger key should be doable.
I haven't been able to solve this in the way I mentioned in my question (setting the backtick key as the trigger rather than the Tab key). I have however come up with a simple work around.
In all of my abbreviations I include the backtick as the last character. Doing this in combination with using the 'trigger immediately (don't require a trigger character)' accomplishes what I was seeking to do.
I am still interested to hear if anyone knows how to do this more directly (changing a setting, rewriting part of the program, etc.).
AutoKey has an option to trigger expansions on all non-word characters. The problem is that it does not consider the backtick a non-word character. To change that, you would have to edit the source code and add the backtick to that list.
I'm not sure where that is in the source code, but if you ask on our Gitter page https://gitter.im/autokey/autokey , one of our developers or advanced users may be able to help you.
This still isn't exactly what you want, but it's closer.
You could also replace the tab key with the backtick key in the source code, but that sounds a bit more dicey and might have other side effects.
SearchComplete breaks the expected functionality of {c|d|y}/pattern, effectively reducing them to /pattern.
SearchComplete breaks use of /<Up> to search history on some systems - it seems like it is specifically a problem in non-gui vim compiled as 64bit displayed within a terminal emulator. This problem results in typing `/ switching to Insert mode and inserting the letter 'A' on a new line, instead of searching the history. I tried to figure out the bug, but I couldn't. Removing SearchComplete fixes the problem.
This is an excerpt I saw from http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Script:474.
I was wondering if there is a workaround for this problem. Because both of these features ar so useful.
The last update of that plugin is from 2002; it's probably unmaintained if the author didn't respond to the feedback on the Vim Tips Wiki page.
You can try the alternative CmdlineComplete - complete command-line (: / etc.) plugin; this works well for me.
as stated in the questions title, we have an issue with VS2012. The problem is that sometimes suddenly some keyboard-input in VS isn't executed properly, if at all.
When the problem occurs, we are only able to type in characters and numbers, but neither are we able to delete them (backspace or DEL), nor to use the arrow key to jump up down a line or to the next/previous character. Overwriting a text which has been marked with the mouse is working.
I have found a very similar Question but the hints stated there doesn't work here. Those are:
Hitting Alt+Enter
Closing and Reopening Editor Windows
Closing the ToolboxWindow
Restarting VS
Pressing ScollLock
The Problem seems to be related to the Stylecop-AddIn. After uninstalling it, the issue doesn't come up anymore. Is there some known workaround? Thanks in advance!
Apparently StyleCop can be used with out Resharper, I didn't know. Very sorry. However, if you look at the documentation for StyleCop, if you right click on your project, click Source Analysis Settings, you will be presented with a dialog to turn on or off all of StyleCops rules.
Here is a link to the actual documentation which has images which helps describe it. StyleCop Settings
Not sure when it happened, before the change or after, but I'm not able to find a search box for searching in issues anymore. Has it been relocated, or it's gone?
Any search you do in the main search field (preceded with "This repository") when you are in a GitHub repo page will return:
result in code
and issues
Note: The shortcut / will focus on the search field and search within the context of a repository.
Note: that shortcut doesn't work with a french keyboard on Firefox. And it only works if I type ':' (again on a French Keyboard) in Chrome. So your mileage may vary. With US locale, this should work fine.
Note that in 2022 (9 years later), there is a command palette, and you can customize the keyboard shortcuts.
When browsing a repository, you can use the "/" shortcut (just type the character) to easily search issues (as well as the code.) There are a lot of really helpful shortcuts (i.e. "gi", which transports you to a repos issues list.)
Type "?" to get a list of shortcuts for a particular context.
Is it a way to set up Resharper to search inside names (instead from beginning) ?
Eg assume when pressing Alt + \ in dialog's results I can see
JohnSmith
JonnyBalboa
MariaSmith
I'm looking for all members contain 'Smith' substring - so I'm forced to use asterisk:
*Smith
But I want just enter 'Smith' without anything more (like in DPack)
EDIT
I've opened R# ticket for this. If anyone interested PLEASE VOTE !
UPDATE
'Contains' mode was implemented in R# ver 5. Works perfectly. Even better I dreamed - intellisence also supports that!
Try it and vote for it!
(RS v5. available here)
I don't believe this is available. You would always have to enter a '*' at the beginning.
If you feel that this is a feature you would use (personally I think I'd find it annoying as I usually search for items by prefix) then you can enter a suggestion on their issue tracking site:
http://www.jetbrains.net/jira/browse/RSRP
Not directly related to your question, but one way of searching for an exact match (i.e. not a prefix) is to include a space after your search term.
