Understood.
Sorry to hear that as this version has the changes to better support spellchecking abbreviations.
If you like to manually work your way through the book chapter by chapter, you can still do that manually always using Current File as the search target.
Some questions for you and @icallaci if your have a free moment so I can better understand what parts of the new behaviour bother you the most.
Under Sigil-1.8, if you do a Find, the cursor will always move to the newly found location and will highlight the what was found, even opening up the next file if needed (assuming the target is set to All HTML files) never staying where it was. The only way it will not move is if nothing was ever found.
Is that the behaviour you seek (not moving the cursor if nothing is found)?
And how do you get back to your editing location normally after doing a Find that actually finds something in Sigil-1.8?
Or are you doing a ReplaceAll at that point and just want keep the cursor where it was?
If either of those cases are the issue, I may be able to handle it just like Count All in that if nothing is found anyplace, do nothing. Or if you run ReplaceAll, try to return you to where the ReplaceAll started (but replacements may impact file positions).
Thanks for taking the time to explain what you used to see and what you are seeing now with the new Find and Replace behaviour that is bothering you.

I'm not sure saved searches would be a lot of help to me. I tend to do S&Rs on items as I come across them whilst working my way through a book - which is why I like to have the focus returned to my editing point.
Given that what I use Sigil for (light editing) the improvements in 1.9 are outweighed by change to the way search works.
For me, there was nothing missing or broken in 1.8, so its probably best that I stick with that from now on.
Thanks for all your hard work anyway.
