I installed Libreoffice writer and I wonder if there is the sidebar for find and replace as in Word 2011. As an editor, to me this is extremely useful and time-saving tool that allow a rapid preview where one can see where certain words are used. Is there a similar tool in Writer?
Hello,
there is no sidebar - but you can CTRL+F and you get a Find toolbar at the bottom, which allows to find (and select) all occurrences of a text string. And there is a Edit -> Find & Replace function, which can be started as a “floating” window and doesn’t need to be closed before you continue to work.
Hope that helps.
