Visual Studio Code - previous search
Visual Studio-CodeVisual Studio-Code Problem Overview
I came from Sublime to Visual Studio Code and I'm looking for the history of searches in the Visual Code , what was in the Sublime with -
Ctrl+Shift+F
and then just press ā to navigate between previous/next search.
How could I get the same functionality on Visual Studio Code on its search text field ?
My current Version is 1.5.2

Solution 1 - Visual Studio-Code
> Up: Shows the previous term in history > > Down: Shows the next term in history
You can customize the keybinding to your liking using history.showPrevious
and history.showNext
Solution 2 - Visual Studio-Code
It's Up and Down in the search edit box. It used to be that you had to use alt, but later they added just the arrow keys by themselves. The keyboard shortcut is customizable under history.showPrevious and history.showNext
Solution 3 - Visual Studio-Code
definitely it should be accessible by UI. Although the minimalistic UI is the best of VSC
you can navigate search recent history by Alt+up/donw
Solution 4 - Visual Studio-Code
There is currently no search history in Visual Studio Code. But it's part of the September milestones as you can see here: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/5508 So the feature will probably be shipped in October 2016.
