But, if the search is repeated using either Ctrl/G or F3 (UNIX) in another tab it no longer wraps and the "The Text you entered was not found" dialogue appears. Returning to the original tab and hitting Ctrl/G or F3 still fails to wrap. This also fails in mail messages. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Using 'find as you type' (either for links or text) locate some text 2. Verify that Ctrl/G or F3 repeats the search and the search wraps 3. Go to another tab and hit Ctrl/G or F3, the search no longer wraps 4. Return to the first tab, hit Ctrl/G or F3, the search no longer wraps It doesn't matter if the text searched for is on the second tab or not, the search will no longer wrap if you return to the original tab. Actual Results: Repeating a search on a different tab no longer wraps. Repeating a search once you've failed on another tab no longer wraps on the original tab. Expected Results: The wrapping should be consistent. If searching wraps it should continue to wrap. I suspect there is a conflict between the expected wrapping on FAYT and the wrap setting in the Ctrl/F find dialogue. In other words, once FAYT has been 'forgotten' the last FAYT search is now considered the find dialogue search and the associated wrap settings now apply ... ie don't wrap.
