Find-as-you-Type (FAYT): Use Up/Down arrow keys to jump to previous/next result (Find Mode)

Help & Support
1

I use FAYT in "Find Mode". Let's say I type "exe", DOpus highlights all occurences of "exe" in the file lister and the first (?) match is selected.

It seems the only way to jump to the next result is the TAB key. Intiuitively, I'd like to use the UP and DOWN arrow keys. Is that possible?

F3 will jump to the next match, similar to using Find in most text editors.

Shift-F3 goes in the other direction.

Thanks @Leo. This can't currently be customized, right? (To my preference of arrow keys.)

Not easily, without breaking the arrow keys generally. Maybe with an AHK script.

But IMO it’s very useful to be able to type into FAYT and then use the arrow keys normally to move to an adjacent file, without having to push Esc and close FAYT first.
