(Saving a) Regular expressions in Polish

[pgraficzny]

Thank you for your great work with regular expressions. It met my expectations and works well with Polish conjunctions.
On the screenshots, you can see how regular expressions correct conjunctions at the end of the line.

"Search and replace", where we enter the following expressions:

Search for a regular expression:
(\s[iuawzoIUAWZO])(\s)
- for individual characters

(\s(Do|W|We|Z|Za|Ze|I|O|U|A|do|w|we|z|za|ze|i|o|u|a))(\s)
or 
(\s\b.{1,2}\b)\s
- for longer words

Tekst zastępujący:
\1[Non Breaking Space - from the pop-up menu]

The rules come from: https://swiatczytnikow.pl/jak-pozbyc-sie-wiszacych-spojnikow-w-calibre/

It would be useful to be able to save the rule in the Publisher. Maybe it exists and I did not find it?

PS. Sorry for my English - Google translate

Thanks, that's interesting.

Is this a request for "save search", or have you found any problems using this search?

[pgraficzny]

Yes, this is a request.

[Patrick Connor]

Thanks, I've moved it to a more suitable forum for others to see and join the discussion

There is already at least one other thread with this same request.

There is indeed a problem with this function in Publisher. Having another button in 'Find and Replace' panel labelled 'Save as a Rule' would be nice!

1.8 (currently in beta) keeps a recently-used list of find and of replace expressions.

I find the recently-used list to be nearly useless in that I frequently make mistakes and have to retype the thing and then correct the correction(s) so the list quickly becomes populated with my mistakes.

It is better than nothing but a saved set could be very nice for for complex items. I use this feature in BBEdit and will copy from that on occasion.

That would be a reasonable feedback comment for the Publisher Beta forum, if you haven't mentioned it there already.

Hello,

 

This is really great.

Can we also add regex to paragraph style?

No, it's only available as a manual Find/Replace operation.

OK....but can be expected /soon/ ?

There's no way to know if Serif plans to provide that function, nor when they might do so.

Koledzy, czy sposób działa Wam w 2023 roku, ponieważ po postawieniu nowego systemu i zainstalowaniu Publishera 1.9 przestało mi działać przerzucanie wiszących spójników do następnej linii, mimo że korzystałem z funkcji z powodzeniem ostatnie 3-4 lata?
