Examples

Simple Replacement

Find: "cat"
Replace: "dog"
Text: "The cat sat on the mat"
The dog sat on the mat

💡 All instances of "cat" replaced with "dog"

Case-Sensitive Replace

Find: "API"
Replace: "api"
Case-sensitive: ON
Only exact "API" matches replaced, not "api"

💡 Case sensitivity matters for precise replacements

Multiple Replacements

Replace "old_name" → "new_name" three times in paragraph
All occurrences updated consistently

💡 Saves time vs manual editing

Common Mistakes to Avoid

⚠️

Not checking case sensitivity

Solution: "Test" won't match "test" in case-sensitive mode. Use case-insensitive if you want both.

⚠️

Replacing parts of words accidentally

Solution: Finding "cat" also matches "category". Use "whole word only" option or add word boundaries with regex.

⚠️

Not previewing before replacing

Solution: Always check what will be replaced first! Undo isn't always available. Make a backup for important content.
