Hi there,

First of all, let me thank you for this great product. Now to my request:

Please get rid of this annoying modal search dialog. It's one thing to search with a dialog, but it's another if it is also modal. In IE you can search and use the browser at the same time, because the search dialog is only "always on top".

I'd still like to see the search integrated like in firefox, though ;)

Thanks again,
Chris M.

I agree with the modality issue and speaking of this search dialog, they should get rid of the radio buttons and just have "find next" and "find previous" buttons.

yeah, firefox's style would kick "behinds"...

I agree, I don't like that modal dialog, too...

Would be much better if search function is directly integrated as a toolbar.

One thing is how you initiate a search. Another thing is how the found text is marked/identified.

Most of the times I cant figure out where foxit actually found the text searched for. Why not put a big icon on top or a frame around the target. Sometimes it is even outside the visible part of the document. May be controlled via options.

In fact,I like the search behavior in AcrobatReader.
Would you like to creat such search toolbar?It would be good for me to find something in any doc.
