Shortcut for selecting next matching string for batch editing

WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND

Having a shortcut to select the next matching string would be great for batch editing.

HOW COULD IT BE DONE

In Visual Studio Code the shortcut is “Ctrl + D”. As in Anytype it’s used for duplicating a block it should be a different one.

REAL WORLD USE CASES

Sometimes I want to change multiple if not all occurences of a string to a new one. For now I’d have to search for the string and manually change it everywhere. I’d like to quickly select the matching strings via a shorcut and edit them simultaneously.

In addition a ‘find and replace’ function inside the search field (Ctrl + f, again like in Visual Studio Code) could also be really helpful.

Describe the solution you’d like First it would be enough to just replace simple strings i think. Additionally regex support would also be great. But that could come later. Describe alternatives you’ve considered Copy the text in another editor and use the function there. Additional context An additional use case would be this one:

@Jomatom That’s a cool shortcut in VS Code. Didn’t know of it.

I guess with the implementation of custom shortcuts we only need this feature

Customizable keyboard shortcuts / hotkeys

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. While it’s great that Anytype has an extensive set of keyboard shortcuts, they are not going to be ideal or intuitive for everyone. Some may overlap with system-wide shortcuts that people have, or they may simply differ from what a user is used to and perhaps uses daily in other apps. So it would be ideal if they could be customized. Describe the solution you’d like Keyboard shortcuts should ideally be fully customizable. The user…

For context, this is in VS Code. First selecting the “test” string and then repeatingly pressing “Ctrl + d”
