The Quick Find toolbar

A reduced version of the Find/Replace dialog is available as a toolbar, activated by the shortcut specified in the Find menu and displayed by default at the bottom of the <oXygen/> window, above the status bar.

The Quick Find toolbar

The Find, Find next, Find previous, Incremental and Case sensitive controls work in the same way as in the Find/Replace dialog. Also the search process works as if the Search also in tags option of the Find/Replace dialog is true, the Whole words only one is false, the Regular expression one is false and the Wrap around one is true. The toolbar becomes invisible again when the ESC key is pressed.

The enabling shortcut can be changed in OptionsPreferences+Menu Shortcut Keys+Quick Find As with any dockable toolbar, the screen location of the Quick Find toolbar can be changed at any time by dragging (and docking) it to the desired location. However the buttons of this toolbar can be used only if it has a horizontal layout so docking it to the West side or the East side of the window is not allowed.
