Created attachment 204946 [details] screenshot - I open a .mediawiki file - I switch to the Preview tab - I hit Ctrl+F I get two "find" dialogs : the browser's native find dialog (I believe it's Internet Explorer's in my case) and the Eclipse editor find dialog : see the attached screenshot The native dialog works, and the Eclipse find dialog doesn't work on the preview tab since it doesn't know how to search in a SWT Browser. Instead, it searches text in the "source" tab, which is not visible at that time (resulting in a confusing user experience). So, I think the Eclipse find dialog should be prevented from appearing when the editor receives Ctrl+F while on the preview tab.
Thanks for the bug! Looks like we should probably change the editor context when switching to the preview tab.

I've tried deactivating the editor context and it's a dead-end: the underlying text editor context is still active. Thinking that activating a new context when on the preview tab might be the way to go: that way we could register our own find command handler. Alternatively, we could try capturing the CTRL+F key event and setting @doit=false@.
Closed as part of backlog clean-up. Please re-open if you'd like to see this revisited, perhaps with a contribution.
