Continuous similar text selection highlighting

#1

Visual Studio Code has this neat feature where the text you highlight gets highlighted in other areas of the document if it exists.

SublimeText has a similar feature too, but it stops with the first word.

I could not find any setting that lets me mimic that in SublimeText.

Is it possible to have it like VS Code where it continually keeps highlighting as long as the text matches the selection?

As far as I’m aware, no; or at least, not for selected text. You should be able to get the same functionality by using the Find panel and turning on the option to highlight matches , though the workflow is not the same.

Thanks for the reply, OdatNurd. It’s really a great feature, I hope it will be added to Sublime Text in the future.
