Mousepad automatic find/search

Whenever I search something in mousepad, and then switch a tab, it automatically also searches that document. When I switch back, it also searches the first tab again. I often search for something and then read and scroll a lot from there. This way I keep going back to a search result and it is driving me nuts. Is there any way to turn this off? Or do I have to remember to close the find box every time?

Re: Mousepad automatic find/search

Yes it's annoying and it's been changed recently: https://gitlab.xfce.org/apps/mousepad/- … 62787d62c5

To be released in Mousepad 0.5.5 soon, but until then you should think about closing the search bar.
