------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon May 2 07:15:21 -0700 2005 ------- I have the following task: take two documents and try to match the use of string A in one document to the use of string B in the other. It turns out that you can open document window 1, and get the Find/Replace dialogue window and fill in the search string A, you then open document window 2 and the first Find/Replace dialogue window disappears so you get what you think is a new Find/Replace window but which has string A already filled in. You instead fill in string B, and perhaps you add a string C as replacement string. Now, if you bring up window 1, the second Find/Replace window disappears, strengthening the impression that it is a separate one, especially so as the "first" Find/Replace window does not have the replacement string filled in, BUT, the search string has changed to B (easily missed). So, there seems to in fact only be one Find/Replace dialogue window, but its visual behaviour is that of a separate one for each document window. The enhancement I want is that each document window in fact has its own Find/Replace window, so that it is possible to search for different things in different windows in parallel. Failing that, it should be made clearer that there in fact is only a single Find/Replace window, by not moving it around when different document windows are brought to the foreground and not hiding replacement strings that have been inserted. I am running NeoOffice/J 1.1 Release Candidate, patch 3, on OS X 10.3.9. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
