Please add an opt-out. I'm quoting portions of the said report below.\r\n\r\n### Steps to Reproduce the Issue\r\n\"In Notepad++, when you do Search -> Find, it automatically populates the \"Find what:\" field according to the behavior below (per the online documentation):\r\n\r\n>  In the Find what field, type the text you want to find. This is automatically filled with the current selected text, or the word under the caret, or the last searched pattern, when the Find dialog is opened.\"\r\n\r\n### Expected Behavior\r\n\"Is there a way to change or disable this behavior? I would prefer that it come up empty. I don't mind the last searched pattern as a reasonable default, but it drives me nuts when it keeps changing the search value by automatically selecting a word next to the cursor.\"\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/comments/487327374","html_url":"https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/3243#issuecomment-487327374","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/3243","id":487327374,"node_id":"MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDQ4NzMyNzM3NA==","user":{"login":"Ekopalypse","id":47723516,"node_id":"MDQ6VXNlcjQ3NzIzNTE2","avatar_url":"https://avatars2.githubusercontent.com/u/47723516?v=4","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/Ekopalypse","html_url":"https://github.com/Ekopalypse","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Ekopalypse/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Ekopalypse/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Ekopalypse/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Ekopalypse/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Ekopalypse/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Ekopalypse/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Ekopalypse/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Ekopalypse/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Ekopalypse/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2019-04-27T23:28:36Z","updated_at":"2019-04-27T23:28:36Z","author_association":"NONE","body":"@Chessax \r\nNothing to apologies. :-)\r\nEnglish is not my native language and I just wanted to make sure that there is no misunderstanding.\r\n\r\nI know, everyone is hunting for the one and only tool, which can do everything one wants and in exactly that way how they want it to behave but ...
