Unmark All button in Find Dialog

Post by mdepot »

The Find dialog has a Mark All button to bookmark all lines where the target is found.

I would like to request an UnMark All (or Clear All?) button in the Find Dialog to un-bookmark lines where the target is found.

Great for when you want to find lines that have something but not something else.

Note the implementation should probably be optimized to only search currently bookmarked lines when this button is pushed. (Conversely, the current Mark All button should be optimized to only search un-bookmarked lines too. I wonder if it is?)

Have you tried

Invert all bookmarks

then your search adding bookmarks

then invert all bookmarks again

?
(not a perfect solution, but better than nothing ...)
