Shortcuts within Find/Replace dialog do not work in Visual Studio Code?

Viewed 19

As shown in this screenshot there are 5 occurrences of the "Find" field. But hitting CMD-ENTER -as shown in the shortcut balloon help - does nothing.

enter image description here Why is it not working/ what can be done to get it to to work? I detest using the mouse for extremely common operations especially Find/Replace.

It is a little odd that the binding is Cmd+Enter on the Mac, whereas it is Ctrl+Alt+Enter on Windows? Things to try:

  1. The equivalent of Ctrl+Alt+Enter on the Mac (and you indicated that Cmd+Option+Enter does work).

  2. Check in the Gear Icon/KeyboardShortcuts editor what the command editor.actions.replaceAll is bound to.

  3. Check in the Keyboard Shortcuts (click on the little keyboard icon to the right and type Cmd+Enter) to see if it is bound to something besides editor.actions.replaceAll.

  4. You can run the Developer: Toggle Keyboard Shortcuts Troubleshooting command from the Command Palette, type Cmd+Enter and see what command vscode finds for that keybinding.

You indicated that Cmd+Option+Enter does work as you expect.
