Re: [PATCH] Remove dangling ends when switching sheets

 

Find
​can
 warp you to a new sheet
​ if the string matches a component that isn't on the current sheet​
. If that sheet hasn't
​yet ​
been shown
​ during the session
, the dangling ends
​have
 not
​ been​
calculated
​, so we force it here.​
​
​Best-
Seth​

Seth,

Why is it necessary to test for dangling end on a find?  Find only
searches for string matches so I'm having a hard time understanding why
the dangling ends need to be cleaned up.

Cheers,

Wayne
