Problem Description

Tried to change keyboard shortcut for “Find Next” from F3 to command-G. Preferences shows that the change has been made, but pressing command-G has no effect. I can’t test to see if F3 works, as F3 is mapped to another function on my computer.

What steps reproduce the problem?

1. Changed “Find Next” from F3 to Command-G

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expect to see the next matching item highlighted in the text editor

@mrclary, could you take a look at this one?

Ok, that’s a good idea. We’ll take a look at it for our next release (5.3.2).
