Find next is reversed

#1

Sublime Text 3 on OSX, since build 3010, when I click find next or press the shortcut (super+g) it finds in reverse, and pressing find prev or the shortcut (super+shift+g) finds next. Sublime Text 2 had a button to switch the direction but I can’t find any such button in ST3.

It took me a while to figure out the solution to this. If you use the shortcut [ctrl+shift+i] that will open the find panel with the direction set to reversed! If you press [ctrl+i] it will open the find panel with the direction forward as normal. This happened to me because [ctrl+shift+i] is also the same key binding in chrome to open the developer panel, and I accidentally pressed this in sublime. Anyways, really annoying! I’m definitely overriding this annoying key binding.

tl;dr press [ctrl+i], then go to your keybinding settings and unbind [ctrl+shift+i] by setting it to the command “unbound”

This happened to me as well, but in ST2. Thanks for the tip - it worked!
