            Bug ID: 128419
           Summary: In Find and Replace, 'Replace backwards' gets toggled
                    back off or back on by the buttons 'Find All', 'Find
                    Previous', etc.
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.3.2.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: alex.dwd at gmail.com

Description:
In the Find and Replace dialogue, the option 'Replace backwards' doesn't always
keep its status (on or off) as set by the user.
See examples below as steps to reproduce. It looks like an issue with the
setting of a global variable/flag...


Steps to Reproduce:
First example:
1. Open Find and replace (Ctrl + H)
2. Fill in the fields for Find:... and Replace:...
3. Check the option 'Replace backwards'
4. Click 'Find All' --> 'Replace backwards' gets unchecked
Second example:
1. Open Find and replace (Ctrl + H)
2. Fill in the fields for Find:... and Replace:...
3. Click 'Find Next'
4. Check the option 'Replace backwards'
5. Click 'Find Previous' --> 'Replace backwards' gets unchecked
Third example:

1. Open Find and replace (Ctrl + H)
2. Fill in the fields for Find:... and Replace:...
3. Check the option 'Replace backwards'
4. Click 'Replace'
5. Uncheck 'Replace backwards'
5. Click 'Find Previous' or 'Find Next' --> 'Replace backwards' gets checked
again

Actual Results:
'Replace backwards' gets checked or unchecked by other actions than the manual
toggling from the user.

Expected Results:
'Replace backwards' should stay checked/unchecked when not toggled directly by
the user.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
