<pre>Description:
In LO Writer & probably also LO Calc:
I want Find & Replace to be able to accept delete or backspace in the Replace
section.
I want Find & Replace to be able to remove a word(s) and a blank line or two.
In other words, I want it to be able to accept delete or backspace as a
character.
For example, if you were editing a list of sets of stuff that was 7 lines per
set and you had over 1000 sets, and each set had 2 lines of space between each
that set and the following set, I want to be able to find the word and replace
the word with [nothing, no other word] and with 2 backspaces, so the program
will get rid of one of the extra lines between each set.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. I’d like to be able to type “” into the Find field.
2. I’d like to be able to type “Subtitle” and 2 backspaces into the Replace
field.
3.
Actual Results:
(can't do it so no results)
Expected Results:
I’d like it to remove the word Subtitle and 1 line of blank space every time I
push Find Next and then I push Replace.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
