      When I use Find All in Current Document, the Find Results window is only displaying about 1,000 characters/line. Is there a way to have it display the full line (in my case, 4,000 characters)? I need to compare data about 2,500 characters into the file and not displaying the full line makes this impossible to do in a clean way. If I double-click on a line in the Find results window at position 2,500, the cursor jumps to the main window but at the location of the characters that were found, not iat the position I was in the Find results window.

        I don’t believe so, not currently.

        There is an open issue regarding it, but so far it doesn’t appear to have had any action/traction: CLICK HERE
        You might want to go there and state your opinion; adds weight for developers to make a change.

        Yes, double-clicking anywhere in the line jumps to the match point.
