The inconsistent accelerators are: Find Replace ---------------------------------------------- Match [C]ase [M]atch Case [R]egular Expression Regular [E]xpression [H]ighlight Results Highligh[t] Results For example it often happens to me that I press Alt+R in the Replace dialog to toggle Regular Expression, like I'm used to from the Find bar, but in the Replace dialog Alt+R instead actuates the "Replace" button. And I always mix up what to press to toggle case sensitivity. The state of these options is shared between "Find" and "Replace", which further enforces the intuition that these are the same options, and hence the expectation that they have the same keyboard shortcuts. Product Version: NetBeans IDE 6.1 Beta (Build 200803050202) Java: 1.6.0_04; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 10.0-b19 System: Windows XP version 5.1 running on x86; Cp1252; en_US (nb)
Yeah, we should fix that. Probably by changing those in Replace dialog to match the 'Find' search bar. Thanks for the report.
