The search and replace mode is broken?
-
Hello people, there is a small problem in the current version, it is broken or the search works somehow differently.
More precisely, I do not know in which version the search broke - but in the last one it is definitely broken.Description of the problem:
There is a text, I make a selection in it, and I look for the selected piece.
before it worked for spaces with newlines,
tabs and other invisible separators. It doesn’t work now.maybe someone knows how to fix it? if this is a new HIV for example?

Maybe something else is broken.

That is a bit vague; can you be more specific?
Assume you did this:
- select some text with one or more spaces in it
- go to Find window
- put a space character in the Find what box
- tick In selection checkbox
- press the Find All in Current Document button
- observe no hits in Find result window
Is that right? If not, can you try that sequence?
Hint: If I try that sequence with the Match whole word only checkbox ticked, I get no hits; otherwise I do get hits, so…see if that checkbox is ticked for you or not.
