Hi Cor,

Just to further clarify, this is my suggested design.

(In reply to Cor Nouws from comment #3)

The primary two buttons that users would constantly be using in the dialog are
the find Find Next and Replace buttons, so its important that they be next to
each other to reduce mouse movement and tab movement.

> 2. This is for Calc. What are the ideas for Writer, Impress?

They all use the same dialog UI file but hide or show different checkbox
options.

Yes i initially asked him to work on that and we decided to redesign the dialog
as well.

> And if possible: issue 98544 is UI related and annoying too.

Well it shouldnt open the options if one option is enabled, it should remember
the state of whether the 'other options' was visible or hidden. I believe
someone started work on this functionality, but it seems to be broken (bug
98437).
