FIXED? [13.30b1] New Find/Replace window quirks
Posted: 28 Jun 2018 18:21
I like the new design, but there are two quirks I think should be ironed out:
1) text from the "find" input is copied between Find and Replace tabs, but not "Find In Files"; why is that? I guess it would be logical to copy it there (and from there), too
2) you have changed dropdowns to checkboxes to facilitate using these windows, and it proved really useful; why step back, then, with a single icon for three functions: regex help, edit and regex creator? I think it would be handier to have three icons: two next to input field (as in the old design), and one (for regex creator) perhaps next to "Regular expression" entry in "Search options" -- what do you think?
