Incremental search is a search mode in which you search for a phrase of text by typing in the edit field, and the document scrolls to show you the search in real time.
As you type, the document scrolls to show the line of text with the most likely phrase you are looking for. It also highlights the text that matched.
The program also shows you how many matches have been detected. There are buttons to move to the next and previous match.
As you type, NVDA will announce the line of text that Notepad++ detected a search result in. NVDA also announces how many matches there are, but only if the number of matches has changed.
When you found the line of text you want, simply press escape, and that line of text will be at your cursor.
