Hi,

I am using Edit.IncrementalSearch (bound to Ctrl+I) very often. I noticed that the search result is highlighted (which is nice). The highlighting seems to come from VAX - at least, if I disable "Highlight find results" (Options -> Advanced -> Display) the highlighting vanishes.
So my question is: How do I unhighlight the search results?

My usual use case is:
1. do an incremental search
2. look at the code found
3. forget about it
and currently the incremental search string is still highlighted in all sources until I do the next incremental search. Even new code matching the last entered search string will be highlighted.
A empty search does not "unhighlight". (as well as searching a blank will highlight all blanks)

VAX 1711, VS2008 SP1 (german) WinXP SP3

cheers,

Stefan

Simply press Escape once to remove the highlighting
