Find but don't Replace

[sherihy]

Love this! Could we also get "Find" without the "Replace?" I need to find text and rewrite it, but I can't do it globally.

Also requesting "Find and replace with nothing" - So I can remove a specific word from everywhere. thnx much

@idoshavit PR #11 just got merged and now allows for replacing with nothing :)

[idoshavit]

Yay!

I'll have a look, might have to write a new plugin from scratch for that, as the way it works would have to be totally different...

Like Martin ... I'll have a look, might have to write a new plugin from scratch for that, as the way it works would have to be totally different... I leave it open as a suggestion for the moment.

It would be great to have the plugin be a one-stop find and replace tool. You could keep the by layer, page, etc options.

Action buttons could be:
Next [Skips to next result: no change]
Change [Changes and goes to next result]
Change All [Changes all instances]
Cancel [Exits without further changes]

[thierryc]

Yes.
It will be another plugin. Or a complete writing of this one.
I am going to start the conception of this tool in a new branch. I also need help for testing.

Who can be involved ?

[idoshavit]

Will be happy to test.

[thierryc]

Welcome on board !

[thierryc]

One more ?

[jrrloves]

I can test.

[thierryc]

GO. I keep you posted !
