Search and replace inside the same blocks

[Anatol Sam]

Is it possible to do search and replace only inside the same blocks of several strings

[Anatol Sam]

For example: I marked a group of five lines. I want to find the same groups throughout whole text and make the same replacements for each of them. Is it possible?

You need a featur called “multi-line find and replace”. E.g. the ToolBucket plugin contains it.

Hello, @anatol-sam,

I think so. But we need some details, about the text to change !

Simply, give us one or several example(s) of the bunch(es) of text which you want to search AND the corresponding text which you expect, for each bunch, after the S/R operation !

To be sure that your text will NOT be interpreted with the Markdown syntax, used on this site, simply wrap all your BEFORE and AFTER stuff with, either :

• The starting line ```z and the ending line ``` ( using the backquote / backtick character ` )

• The starting line ~~~z and the ending line ~~~ ( using the tilde character ~ )

For instance :

I have :

```z
Your BEFORE stuff
```

And I would like :

~~~z
Your AFTER stuff
~~~

So, in short, give us some material to think about :-))

Best Regards
