RegEx-Bug? Hi,
tested with 8.01: Open a new document and paste these three lines: TEST!!! ** TEST !!! TEST!!! Now goto start of the document and open find dialog with this regex: (?<!\*\*) *TEST There are three parts marked in green, but the last line is never selected when pressing "find down" multiple times. |

I reproduced your issue, but this expression is confusing. Can you explain what you are really searching for? Is it possible to show me a simpler example? Thank you.

Re: RegEx-Bug? (?<!\*\*) is negative lookbehind.
I am looking for the word "TEST", but not if there is ** in front of it. Between ** and TEST may be spaces. This is for our programming language where ** marks a comment. So I am looking for TEST which is not commented out. |
