thanks all, for helping.
I'm on the latest beta 3.6.16779, and it seems I'm one of the few where CTRL-F only works after actively clicking in the pdf window.

Just FYI, For me, F7 doesn't work at all, when sumatrapdf is used, neither after clicking in the pdf window. But when from the top menu, I change between the viewing-plugin to another one, F7 does work. But my muscle-memory is ctrl-f

Then ask the author of SumatraPDF to fix this bug or use the version no higher than 3.2 from the sLister plugin.

For everyone, this works on the versions of SumatraPDF above 3.2.

The search function inside PDF file is operated by SumatraPDF. To have F7 working you can add

Code: Select all

	[
		Cmd = CmdFindFirst
		Key = F7
	]
into Shortcuts section of your SumatraPDF-settings.txt. Then both Ctrl-F and F7 will work. But still only when you click into the window.
If I remember it well, it had been changed with versions after 3.4.6.
