Jump to top of results when search changes

[fin-w]

Can I suggest adding --bind='change:first' to the fzf command line options, so that when the search pattern is changed, the fzf position jumps to selecting the first entry if it's part way down a list?

For example I search, start scrolling, then decide to search with a more exact term. The correct item is likely at the top of the fzf menu but my position is still part way down.

I'm aware that you can set up fzf-lua to display results with closest match at the top OR bottom of the menu, I have my set up with the search at the top and the results running down, and I'd need to investigate if "first" is smart enough to jump to the top / bottom contextually depending on how you've set fzf up.

You can always set keymap.fzf.change = "first"

That’s a personal preference and very subjective, you can configure it in your setup as @nenahp suggested

No worries, thanks both :) I thought others might find it useful.
