Please can I request a larger search box or search area so that it is easy to type longer search criteria.

@lopezpa79 Is it the Search box in Search viewlet or in Editor find widget?

@sandy081, Mainly the Editor Find Widget, as I usually work with single files.

The Search box in the viewlet I can expand the panel to view more, but at the expense of the editor window viewing area.

Would be useful if it could be a re-sizeable floating "find" / "find in files" window that could be docked on any side (top/bottom/left/right).

I was looking for a setting to change the editor find widget style to the one in the settings editor. I prefer the search bar style which spans across the editor width.

editor find widget:

search in the settings editor:

Also, be able to move it to the bottom of the screen, like in Atom, Sublime, emacs, etc ...
