            Bug ID: 133833
           Summary: Calc Find toolbar should have "entire cell" checkbox,
                    same as Find/replace dialog
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.3.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: frankshih at yahoo.com

Description:
The calc Find/Replace dialog has a checkbox to only find/match if the string
matches an entire cell.  This option lacking in the Find toolbar, which is a
much more convenient location for this needed function.  OpenOffice's Find
toolbar uses the checkbox in the Find/Replace dialog, which is persistent, but
in LibreOffice, it's neither persistent nor effective for the toolbar.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open spreadsheet with cell containing e.g. "Hell", "Hello"
2. On Find Toolbar, search for "Hell", it will match "Hello".
3. If there were a "Entire Cell" checkbox like on the Find/Replace dialog, it
would then not find cells with "Hello".

Actual Results:
N/A

Expected Results:
N/A


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Possibly could have an optional "Entire Cell" toolbar widget that could be
added or removed to the Find Toolbar, but if its removed, then it's unclear
what the default behavior should be (e.g. match entire cell, or not).

Note that OpenOffice has essentially this capability, as described in the
description.
