It would appear that the majority is for Option 2. However, before submitting a patch, I'd like to see if the proposal of a user selectable layout is viable. Not only to satisfy also the minority, but also to clean up the situation, which currently IMO isn't too much satisfactory. The idea of a selectable configuration has triggered the following considerations. What happens now is that in lcl/forms you have two units, one for the Find dialog and one for the Replace dialog, each one with its form. You must use them to design your forms. Once you're happy with them, you must copy the code into one of the files included by the Dialogs unit which loads also the lfm files generated when compiling the other units. IOW quite a complicate situation, not too clean. I gather that this is made necessary to avoid a circular dependency: you cannot include a unit which uses LCLBase into the package LCLBase itself. A cleaner solution would be to build those dialogs in code, like the other ones in the Dialogs unit, without loading an lfm file from stream. Besides the advantage of providing a configurable layout, this solution could be implemented with an ancestor class of a generic Find/replace dialog, from which those two dialogs could be derived. This would provide the extra bonus to give to users the option of building their own custom dialogs, deriving them from the ancestor class, for special usage. A find/replace dialog used in an editor of po files may need the options of selecting MsgId/MsgStr, an application may need to enable/disable a search based on regular expressions, etc. I'd like to investigate if this path can be followed without too many difficulties. Any observations?
