      Search: Do not generate multiple result lines when several words found in one line.
      Is there an option to not generate multiple result lines?

      for example.

      **the balloon goes up, up and up.
      **

      searching for ‘up’ generates 3 result lines which can confuse.

      For a real world example, a log file contains timestamps. generating multiple result lines makes one have to go back to the original to verify it was only one printline executed and not multiple executions of printline.
      How do I prevent this?

        Hello @Anil-Philip,

        with the built-in feature this isn’t currently possible.

        Cheers
        Claudia

          I second that request.
          Always confuses me.
