Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use Regex for advanced replacing?
Absolutely. Toggle on Regex mode to use standard JavaScript regular expression syntax. You can even use capture groups (like `$1`, `$2`) dynamically within your replacement text.
Is the find query case-sensitive?
By default, no. However, you can toggle exact case-sensitivity on or off instantly using the dedicated 'Aa' formatting button.
Can I replace newlines and line breaks?
Yes! Using Regex mode, you can target and match `\n` (newlines) and `\t` (tabs) to effectively remove or replace hidden document formatting.
