What does "Use selection for Find" do?

@ctietze I am unable to get this menu item "Use Selection for Find β7" to work in The Archive. Is this something to be implemented in the future, a bug, or do you think I have a key binding or something somewhere interfering?
@MikeBraddock The system default key binding for this is βE, so you must've reconfigured something somewhere π€
What does happen when you hit β7, actually?

@ctietze I am pretty sure I changed from E to 7 to see if an alternative binding would work. The βEditβ menu text flashes blue each time I try β7 or βE when I remove my β7 binding. However, nothing else happens. No search activity, just the menu item flash.
@ctietze Here is my version:
Ok, and β7 does work when you're in TextEdit and the like?
Just to make sure in terms of "nothing happens": You will not notice any effect, visually, unless your (βF) find bar is open. Because this function only changes the text finder's search term, so you can hit βG to jump to the next occurrence of the marked phrase. It does not do anything special with regard to The Archive's Omnibar.

@ctietze Yes, mark this as user error. Thanks for enlightening me. Sorry for the false alarm.
