Search bar went blank

(Just noting...)


Search bar, went blank

seemingly my query was there
& i could backspace (through blank-ness) [empty-ness]
& i could see ...

oh, i think i know what happened,
i must have inadvertently pasted a huge "string" in
(5068 bytes, i believe)
& that overflowed the 4096 (or whatever it may be)
& that resulted in a "blank" Search bar

ok, that threw me for a moment

Everything is limited to 4095 characters in the search box.
This is a limitation with the stock edit control.


The search box will appear blank when there is more than 4095 characters.
However, the search box and the search will continue to function correctly.


I have on my TODO list to replace the stock edit control with my own.
