Replace Text dialog

The Replace Text dialog is provided for searching and replacing text in the editor window.

 

 

Text to find

Enter a search string. To select from a list of previously entered search strings, click the down arrow next to the input box.

 

Text to replace

Enter the replacement string. To select from a list of previously entered search strings, click the down arrow next to the input box. To replace the text with nothing, leave this input box blank.

 

 Case sensitive

Differentiates uppercase from lowercase when performing a search.

 

 Whole words only

Searches for words only. (With this option off, the search string might be found within longer words.)

 

 Regular expressions

Recognizes specific regular expressions in the search string.

 

 Prompt on replace

Prompts you before replacing each occurrence of the search string. When Prompt on replace is off, the editor automatically replaces the search string.

 

Forward

Searches from the current cursor position, to the end of the file. Forward is the default Direction setting.

 

Backward

Searches from the current cursor position, to the beginning of the file.

 

Global

Searches the entire file, in the direction specified by the Direction setting. Global is the default scope.

 

From cursor

The search starts at the cursor's current position, and proceeds either forward to the end of the scope, or backward to the beginning of the scope depending on the Direction setting. From cursor is the default Origin setting.

 

Entire scope

The search covers either the entire block of selected text or the entire file (no matter where the cursor is in the file), depending upon the Scope options.

 

Replace All

Click Replace all to replace every occurrence of the search string. If you check Prompt on replace, the Confirm dialog box appears on each occurrence of the search string.
