In Visual Studio 2015, when I select some text and press Ctrl+F or Ctrl+H, it doesn't default to search within the Selection. This is a huge breaking change to my workflow.
Additionally, it seems like sometimes it even removes my selection, though I haven't confirmed this for sure (I use the dark theme and sometimes it's hard to tell what's selected).
Is there any way to get the old behavior back, where if I launch the find dialog with a selection in the active window, it defaults to search within "Selection" instead of "Current Document"?
For those who want to get in on the action, I've reported this as a bug at Microsoft Connect.
I had no idea this was a setting! The solution is as simple as checking a box—Go to Tools -> Options -> Environment -> Find and Replace and check "Automatically limit search to selection".
Microsoft has acknowledged this change in behavior from the previous version—I received an email that Visual Studio 2015 Update 2 will have this option set by default for fresh installations.
Thank you, Microsoft!
