      Hello eveybody
      I want to change text in a marked text block
      for this I mark the text block using the keys [Alt]+[UpperCase] and the mouse
      then I open the dialog box “Replace” using [Strg]+[H] and enter the text to be changed in the find field and the new text in the replace field
      I find the option “In selection” but this option is not selectable
      what have I to do in order to succeed?

        In selection checkbox is not available when you have a column-block selection active, which I think is the situation you’ve described. It’s a by-design behavior. In other words, you can’t do it.
