Shortcuts for search & replace clips

celiapgt · 12-11-2016, 05:33 PM

I have certain search & replace clips saved that I would love to run with a shortcut assigned to them.

I cannot find the way to do it. These are not regular clips (whom to I know how to assign a shortcut).

If this feature is still not present, I respectfully ask for it to the developers.

Have you already checked out the Saved Searches feature (CTRL+ALT+F)?

You could create a Saved Search group that contains all your search and replace expressions. Once you've created a Saved Search group you could select its items in the Find & Replace dialog box by right-clicking the Find/Replace box.

Doitsu, yes, I have used that feature.

Since I am more a keyboard person, I try to use the mouse less when I'm editing an ebook.

Thanks for answering, but I am looking for a shortcut to trigger the right-click and select option at once.

If there is no present solution, I'll post it as a feature request.

Thanks again!
