(I understand the reasoning for why not, > but still consider it a worse UX). Really cofusing wishlist, but I read this as follows, so the requests here are: 1. "Match whole word" -button to be added to Ctrl+F 2. "Match whole word" -button to be added to Ctrl+Shift+F For request 1: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=290010#c3 states: > This is by design, and it works pretty well.

Hence, this won't change ;) -> "Match whole word" ewrks as specified, through the Power Search (Ctrl+R) For request 2, add "match whole word" button to Find In Files function: Seems to be indeed missing. Is there a design restriction here? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
