This obviously doesn't make it selectable. I would still be open to that if there's a light-weight and non-invasive way to do it. Notepad++ collects all its search results in another text editor that it highly controls so it gives a bit more 'text-like' capabilities.

The other thing was in #1072 was the MainWindow.cpp changes. This is a problem...but I think the issue is larger than a specific check. In theory any QDockWidget should be able to add their own shortcuts (e.g. Lua Console, Debug Log, etc) and not require the main window to know about what shortcuts it needs.

Sorry for the delay, works as intended when I tested it locally, looks good to me, I'll try reworking a non invasive way for selecting text in individual search results as suggested.

No worries. I've also been super busy lately so I apologize for the delay getting back to you on your PRs.

And I agree that selectable text is desirable, but not at the cost of complexity or performance. I wish there was a simple flag that could be enabled via Qt but it seems not 😢
