[TxMt] Re: behavior of "Find" window - don't recent on bring to front?

[Tim Bates]

Thanks for the ⇧⌘F tip… never seen it.
Weirdly, if the find window is closed, ⇧⌘F opens with the user’s directory as the search scope. 
But if the find window is open, but not front most, ⇧⌘F opens with previous directory as the search scope. 
And if it’s already open, then ⇧⌘F sets the scope to ~ ...

The behavior of searches that are stale is another issue: clicking on them often also does nothing after an edit has been made.

best, tim
