    hello, Can a resizable window be created for FIND and REPLACE?

    Suppose I have more lines with code, and is dificult to use so many regex expressions to change several files in a folder. Also, is very hard to use that thin FIND/REPLACE bar in ntepad++ for such as task, especialy on replace, because I must see the lines.

    This is an example of Text Crawler editor, that have this resizable window on FIND and REPLACE option.

    can something like this be done in notepad ++?

      This is a nice suggestion that could ease user issues with any type of multiline find (or replace), not just regular expressions.

        Maybe you want to make an actual FEATURE REQUEST for this?

          yes, I had to post elsewhere. Can my post be moved to FEATURE REQUEST section?

            There’s no “feature request” section on this current site. It is all described in the link I provided.

              The OP never made this a true feature request.

              But it did get a mention in an issue HERE, by me.
