Feature Request: Improved find and replace

[Desmild]

There are 2 features that i request making the feature better.
1. When i search for a word it gives me the list results but not the number of how many results. This can be of use when people do textual critisism.    
2. When i search for a word i have to click on the result. Please make it easier by just pushing Enter to get to next result. This is very important for people who uses a document for a database like me.

These are quite small features but quite important i would say; and nr 2 help you build upon the edge of performance you got over Adobe and Microsoft Office.
Like for example when i search for a word in Microsoft Word, it is a delay when finding the result. But Affinity Publisher is incredibly fast so searching for a word there is lightning fast which makes me want to move my database from Word into Publisher. But using the search function and mouse combined stops me.

You don't have to click on the next result. You could configure a shortcut key for Find Next, via Preferences, Keyboard Shortcuts. For example, I've chosen F3 which is commonly used in other of my Windows apps for this purpose:

By the way, pressing Enter to move to the next entry can't work. When you've done a Find, the focus is no longer on the results list. Rather, the text you found is selected, and the text cursor is there so you can modify the text. Pressing Enter will delete the selected text and insert a paragraph break.

Thank you once again for clearing that one out Walt.farell. It's really good that Affinity has the option to make a shortcut for it. Pressing enter was the standard in Word so i jumped to the conclution that Affinity had left it it out. I was wrong there

You're welcome.
