Thread: Issue in "Find and Replace"
Hi developers! Hi Dave! Still testing beta4, rev. 5567:5572 on Win XP. Trying to find strings starting with ' ' (space) generally fails. Regards Erwin

I found that the alleged issue with the leading space was due to the option "Whole word" being checked. However, there are other, more severe issues: - Replacing ceases to work after non-latin-1 (or at least after German umlauts) characters in the text. Try the following test case: ' foo bar test test test foo bar ö <-- note the umlaut! foo bar test test test foo bar ' Now, try replacing 'test'. Even "backwards" does not work on the part after the umlaut. In case it matters (which I don't think): I have language "Default" and "Read and write Unicode UTF-8 files" in the preferences. This issue is _not_ present in the original beta4. Maybe introduced with your recent fixes? - If I try a search "From the top" "Forwards", then close the "Find and Replace" window, even edit the SQL script, then open "Find and Replace" again, and start a new search (without editing the search text) it does not search from the top, but continues to search from the last position before closing the "Find and Repalce" window. Closing the window should make it forget the last position, IMO. This issue was not present in the original beta4, because "Find" "From the top" was broken and never found anything past the first match. It did, however, remember postion between searches with "from the cursor" as long as you did not click in the SQL script before opening the "Find and Replace" window again. Regards Erwin
I have checked out v1.6 RC1 and both issues are still there. Regards Erwin
