Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 10156
Find & Replace. Option to start at beginning
Last modified: 2013-02-07 22:38:19 UTC
Currently, Find and Replace starts its search from the current cursor position. Please add a check box option to start the search from the beginning. This is because: + sometimes it's not obvious when I get to the place I started on the next lap. + I often want to look from the start as typically where ideas are introduced in documents.
Reassigned to BH
Also on Replace All, it should go only from current cursor position to end, and then ask if it should start from begining, like when replaicing one by one. Now it replaces all occurences in the document when I only want it from current cursor to end.
