Multiple Templates

[ercancem]

Is it possible to define multiple templates?

[pgilfernandez]

No, it's not possible yet.
It would need a system to save, load, delete... that is not easy to develop.

By now, I'm out of time... it would be nice that someone with more time than me could develop that feature.

The rules are case sensitive; is it possible to turn off that?

[pgilfernandez]

Yes, you can disable it in the package settings:

Hi,
I have around 50 find and replace strings which I would like to use singularly. Is there a way to choose the search and replace 'units' separately and not all at once as this plugin seems to work?
Thanks!

[pgilfernandez]

Umm, I think I haven't understood what do you want to do... could you drop me an example so that I can clearly see it?

Thanks

Hi, yes of course! Here is a sample of three Regex:

[Name] ALL Full stops[All]
Find
[Parameters] MsgOff Regular
[Replace]…
[Parameters] MsgOff Regular
[Command] ReplaceAll

[Name] 1EN NoAltr --abc--, —abc—, — abc —, -> [All]
Find(—|–{1,}|-{2,})(\s*)
[Parameters] MsgOff Regular
[Replace]⁠—⁠
[Parameters] MsgOff Regular
[Command] ReplaceAll

[Name] 2EN NoAltr - abc -, -> [All]
Find(-{1,})(\s+)
[Parameters] MsgOff Regular
[Replace]⁠—⁠
[Parameters] MsgOff Regular
[Command] ReplaceAll

In your syntax they should be rendered as follows i guess:

(\s*)(—|–{1,}|-{2,})(\s*) => ⁠—⁠
(\s+)(-{1,})(\s+) => ⁠—⁠
etc.

What I would like is to

1. Be able to access the file in order to paste there all my transformed regex
2. Have a title for them if possible
3. Be able to choose which one I execute at any given time and
4. Replace, if I choose the found instances, not automatically replace them all.

I realize though that this looks like a lot of work. Here is what the find and replace dialog box of Altsearch Replace in Libreoffice looks like:

thanks!
