RE: Find and Replace dialog question

["Brian D. James" <bjames@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Hak,

Yes, this is a viable solution but it is a bit combersome. This solution
forces you to visit the options page every time you want to do a prompted
replace in order to uncheck the "Cancel after find" box and then again after
you're through to re-check the box. IMHO, a prompted "replace all" is a
fairly common requirement when doing maintenance programming and from a
product usability/productivity standpoint I think a radio button on the
Find/Replace dialog box to perform a prompted "replace all" would be much
more beneficial than the first two Replace radio buttons that currently
exist.

Regards,

Brian

With my limited knowledge of CODE editor, I think the most viable change is
to leave the 'Find and Replace' prompt focused after the search. There you
can do a 'Find' then 'Replace'; 'Cancel' to exit the prompt.
