rufus Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 I have 10 files loaded and need to do the same search and replace in all of them. As I go from loaded file to loaded file I have to re-type both the search and replace strings. Please retain search and replace strings. Also it would be very nice to be able to search and replace in all loaded files, without having to do each one individually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rufus Posted July 24, 2021 Author Share Posted July 24, 2021 Correct. Oh, I did say "re-type" in my original post, sorry. Scrap that part. The current facility requires two clicks each to retrieve the last used search and replace strings. Just leaving those strings in place in their respective fields would require no clicks to retrieve them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, that goes against one of the fundamental design points of the Affinity UI, I think, that documents should be isolated from each other.
