WebStorm - prevent closing the search box

I am using WebStorm. Every time I open the search box (WebStorm) it closes when I switch between windows / tabs of the computer.

How can I prevent this and keep the window open when I go back to WebStorm?

Assuming that by "search box" you mean the Find on the Go functionality, which was redesigned in 2017 ...

When switching between apps - this is a bug in 2017.1 - this has been fixed and should be available in 2017.1.1

If the question is about "it closes when clicked outside of the new search popup (eg in code)", please follow the IDEA-168640 ticket (star / voice / comment) to be notified of any progress.



PS You can go back to the old style dialog box if you like:

-Dide.find.as.popup=false

in the help | Changing the user settings of the virtual machine will restore the original dialog box.
