Is there any way in JetBrains Rider to keep the "find" input box between files

I'm using JetBrains Rider. Quite often I hit Ctrl +F (Cmd + F, actually, on a Mac), type the text I'm looking for. This part works.

Now, almost as often, I'll then switch to a different file, because I want to search in a different file, too. The "find" input box then disappears. Not only that, but if I hit Ctrl +F again, the input box shows, with the last text I searched for, in this file.

That forces me to type again what I'm searching for. This is quite annoying, and very different from what the other IDEs offer.

Is there a setting to adjust this behaviour?

In jetbrains rider you can use F3 to find the next thing in the search, this will work across files. So when you switch to another file it will start searching from the cursor for the next match in that file.

AFAIK this is not possible.

https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-152119 -- watch this ticket (star/vote/comment) to get notified on any progress. Another related ticket: IDEABKL-5260

P.S. Please note that those tickets are for IDEA platfom. Rider is a bit different beast (still IDEA platform but with many specific changes) and those tickets may not be applicable here (unlike PyCharm/PhpStorm/RubyMine/etc that would automatically inherit such platform-wide functionality).
