Multiple word search and find next

Scrivener Scrivener for macOS
1

When I do a search for multiple words, e.g. dog cat, Scrivener finds them all and lists the documents in the binder. When I then use cmd-G to find the words in a document, I get an error beep. This does not happen if I search for ‘dog’ alone or ‘cat’ alone, but if I am searching for multiple words, I cannot quickly get to where they are in the document. Is this a bug, or just an unavoidable situation. If a bug, will it get fixed soon?

Thanks

It’s not a bug, no. It’s just a difference between how the project search and the Find panel work. The project search allows you to choose “any word”, but the Find panel just uses standard Mac Find options (starts with, ends with, whole word, contains.
All the best,
