Hmmm.... using '.*' as the search string would search the selected files one line at a time. From what you say, it would appear that this is correctly searching each file and returning the first match. As for using the text checkbox, the only time I would use that is to make sure I am not searching inside <...>.

. matches any character (except for line terminators)

* matches the previous token between zero and unlimited times, as many times as possible, giving back as needed (greedy)
