Use the controls in this preference group to specify default characteristics to be applied to find operations. Controls and push buttons are:
| Case sensitive | Specifies whether the find feature is to respect or ignore
character case. If this option is selected, only those character strings
that exactly match the text in the Find field (including uppercase and
lowercase characters) will be found.
If this option is not selected, all character strings matching the text in the Find text field will be found, regardless of whether individual characters are in uppercase or lowercase. |
|---|---|
| Restrict search to current selection | If selected, find operations will look for the search item only in the marked text selection of the current file view. If no text is selected, the find operation tries to find the search item in the current file view. |
| Emphasize found text | If selected, found text is highlighted. |
| Select found text | If selected, found text becomes a selected block of text. |
| Wrap | If selected, searches all text in the current file, including that preceding the cursor position. If you do not select this option, text is searched, depending on search direction, only until the beginning or end of file. |
| Column restricted search | If selected, restricts the scope of your search to certain
columns only. To set the column boundaries of your text search, enter a
value for the following fields:
|
| Find text | Specifies a default text string to search for. |
| Replace text | Specifies a default text string with which to replace found text. |
| Push buttons |
