[3.2 RC5] Find & Replace inconveniences

[Crimson Wizard]

For a few times already I've met a situation when I need to rename lots of instances of a variables in the code. Hence, I can tell that Find & Replace tool in AGS has certain inconveniences in how it works.

1) There's no "replace all" option.
2) It is possible to hit and hold enter key, when "replace" button is selected, and it will work, but for some reason script window is not updated during this process and you will only see changes after you release the key.

I second this, and while we're on the subject want to add:
1. Have the find/replace all, with an option to be: per document, per open documents or per entire project.
2. Find all references as a context menu on all existing types.

Those for me are the two most missing features of the editor today to make it on par with the rest of the existing IDEs.

1) There's no "replace all" option.

Agreed, this would be useful.

2) It is possible to hit and hold enter key, when "replace" button is selected, and it will work, but for some reason script window is not updated during this process and you will only see changes after you release the key.

This is a very minor issue, it's not something I would plan to spend any time on changing.

1. Have the find/replace all, with an option to be: per document, per open documents or per entire project.
2. Find all references as a context menu on all existing types.

Yes, I think a "Find in game" option that searches all scripts and all dialog scripts is something that the editor really needs, I will try to add it at some point.
