[BUG] find_selected_text doesn't work (resolved)

[mconigliaro]

Is anyone else having trouble with the find_selected_text option in the alpha builds? The default seems to be set to true, and I'm definitely not overriding it in my user settings, but it has not worked for me on OSX since the option was introduced (I'm currently on build 2042).

OK, it looks like it works in the "find in files" dialog (ctrl + shift + f), but it does not work in the regular find dialog (ctrl + f)

You need to change the value in your user settings, rather than the default ones, as the one in Base File.sublime-settings is overridden by the Base File (OSX).sublime-settings. The Find in Files panel is currently ignoring this setting, which I'll fix.

I see, so even though the default for "find_selected_text" is true in Base File.sublime-settings, it's set to false for some reason in Base File (OSX).sublime-settings. It was not obvious to me that this setting might only be disabled by default on OSX. But yeah, overriding this in my user file settings worked. Thanks!
