Forward slash not working in Find and Replace
« on: May 09, 2019, 11:22:15 am »
When trying to remove or replace text in any of the fields, the forward slash character "/" (no quotes) will be either ignored, or, if by itself, remove all of the text before it.

This is a new bug affecting version 25 (still an issue as of 24.0.33 64-bit Windows).

The slash is the escape character.  Just enter // for a literal slash.

Next build we'll make a change:
Changed: Marked the expressions used in Find & Replace to not be escaped (that way slash doesn't need special treatment).

Sounds good. Until then, I'll use the double-slash method. Thanks.
