If you only want to replace certain matches, use the technique described in the topic for Search|Find Next. Regular expressions cannot search backwards.ĮditPad does not have a “prompt on replace” option. Replace All Previous is not available in regular expression mode.
If a search match is already highlighted, that match is replaced too. The Replace All Previous button does the same, except that it searches backwards, performing the search-and-replace on the part of the file before the position of the text cursor. Effectively, Replace All Next does in one click what you can do by clicking Replace and Find Next until no further matches can be found. Replace All Next performs the search-and-replace on the part of the file after the position of the text cursor. In EditPad Pro, the Replace All button on the search toolbar has a drop-down menu with two items: Replace All Next and Replace All Previous. A progress meter will pop up to indicate EditPad’s progress after a second or two. If there are a lot of search matches, replacing them all might take a while. If you used the keyboard shortcut to do the Replace All with the search panel hidden, check the status bar for the result. If no search matches can be found, EditPad briefly flashes the Replace All button’s icon to indicate failure. Even when searching through all projects or all files, the current file remains active throughout the operation. It simply replaces all matches without moving the selection or the text cursor. The only difference between clicking Replace All and using all the individual action buttons is that Replace All is silent. If it finds a match, it replaces it like Replace Current would, and then continues searching like Find Next would, replacing all further search matches. Replace All starts searching from the beginning just like Find First does. After using Prepare to Search or pressing Ctrl+F and entering a search term and replacement text, click the Replace All button on the Search toolbar or select the Replace All item in the Search menu to find the first search match.
