Wahooney:
Is any work being officially done on the Replace Dialog?

I am in the process of reworking the interface and I just want to know if someone in a more official capacity has already started making any changes for a future version?

Thanks.

dmoore:
i'm not a dev, but i don't think anyone has anything major planned except bug fixing (check the bug list). what are you planning?

Wahooney:
Basically streamlining the whole experience.

Primarily I would like to remove the second dialog the pops up after you click the Replace button and have the Replace, Find Next and Replace All options in the one dialog. The dialog will also be made non-modal The Replace in Files will also be removed and integrated into the one page and a button will be created next to each input field of the dialog allowing quick access to common RegEx commands. I was thinking that perhaps it will be useful to make the dialog dockable for those lonf Find and Replace sessions that sometimes happen.

Once all these changes have been made I will submit a patch to the main devs for integration into the SVN, if it proves worthy, and I hope everyone will benefit from the changes.

I'll post a screen shot of the proposed changes asap.

Ceniza:
Wahooney: the dockable find and replace dialog sounds nice. I'll be waiting for the screenshots :wink:

dmoore:
sounds great but... why don't you implement as a plugin first? might need to check whether the plugin architecture gives you sufficient access to the bits you need to hook into. you can certainly do the dockables
