Find&Replace - table of contents

Unread post by Nadia Gaganova »

In my experience, Find&Replace with "Table of contents" option works only with the main TOC, alternative TOCs are passed by. Is this intentional behaviour or a bug?

Hi Nadia,

This works fine in all TOCs. Make sure that you have also selected "All Topics" for the scope of your search and that you are using the current version of Help+Manual ( 7.1.0 Build 3925 release version, or a later beta).

Hello Tim,
finally got round to re-checking this. It doesn't work for me, version 7.2.0 build 3997.
Replace worked all right in the main TOC, but didn't do anything in alternative TOCs. In topics and keywords worked fine everywhere.

Aha... you're right. This must have changed with the current version. It's also not working in the final release version out yesterday. :evil:

I'll get our developers onto this right away. :)

Well... this is not new, but has been missing since version 7.0 :?
Until now.

We've updated version 7.2 to build 4028 today. Find & Replace now takes all TOCs into account.
