This is my #1 irritant with uVision, does anyone have ideas how to avoid it (is not, but could be, always move cursor left first) Win7 pro/chrome
A point was made back in 2008:
"more words do not make you appear stupid, they make you appear precise."
Words that should be heeded.

1) How sudden is "suddenly", i.e. as of when did this happen? it may happen in the middle of entering what I want and it may happen when moving the cursor towards 'find'
2) What do you mean by "pick"? well, pick
3) And if it's now "something else": what was it before, what is it now? before it was what I entered/was entering, "now" it is something else
I juist ran into a clearcut example I clicked ctl-sh-f and entered 3v3 in the "find what" window. Before I got the cursor to "find all", the window as empty
Hello Erik,
When you say the "window as empty" I assume you meant the "find what" field was empty.
For the "file types" field, is this what you had:
*.c;*.cpp;*.cxx;*.cc;*.h;*.hpp;*.hxx;*.hh;*.asm;*.s;*.A51;*.A251;*.A166;*.inc
For the "Look in" field did you have "current project" ?
Any check boxes in the "Find options" subsection?
Trying to see if I can reproduce this too.
Thanks,

Hmmm.... why would you want to 'get the cursor to "find all"' in the first place? In this, like just about every Windows dialog in the world, you can simply hit <Return> on your keyboard to finish data entry and start the primary action at any time. Alternatively in the case at hand you can press <Alt+F>, as indicated by the underlined 'F' of "Find all".
And anyway, how do you move the cursor: by mouse, by keyboard, by touchpad, by touchscreen, ...? Might this be a symptom of your input device having intermittent failures? Touchpads, e.g. tend to generate spurious clicks or trigger other special actions if their driver configuration no longer matches what your fingers are accustomed to.

anyhow, the "use <return>" method does not solve the cases where the contents change while entering
