Reassigned to SBA Addendum: Sorry, ignore the comments about \1 and \x failing in replacement. I understand now that those match in the search expression only. The main point, that \t fails, is still valid. I can confirm this on both, 3.2.1 and DEV330m8: \t introduce a tab for any replaced text EXCEPT when it replace an end of paragraph, in which case it introduce "\t" as text Confirmed with AOO410m14(Build:9760) - Rev. 1573601 2014-03-03 17:47:48 (Mo, 03 Mrz 2014) Win 7 Really a crazy thing, works anywhere fine, only if the \t is the first in the replace pane and $ the last in the find pane the problem appears Confirmed with actual AOO 4.1.3, 4.2 dev and 4.5 dev As Workaround use "AltSearch" from the AOO extensions site. https://extensions.openoffice.org/en/project/alternative-dialog-find-replace-writer-altsearch |
