Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 32206
Find&Replace method to especial characters
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:38:26 UTC
In microsoft word, in menu "edit" "find", we have the option "special" to find format characters, as tab stops, paragraph stops, etc... This feature is particular useful when importing documents, and to clean them from undesirable marks (replacing them with ""). OpenOffice doesn't have that possibility, or it has and i don't understand how to use it.
MRU->SBA: possibly there already is an RFE like this....
from issue 28913: [..] In my opinion to enhance the "Regular Expression amount" is less than half the way to ease the Find and Replace function for average users. Hardly anyone wants to learn "How-To-Code-What-I-Want". The best solution is always "easily finding and clicking on what I was looking for" [...] *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 28913 ***
