The problem still exists in 2.4.3. To reproduce, the cursor needs to be in text, NOT in a math box. Then when the "Find" button is clicked in the Advanced Find dialog, the buttons move up to leave the mouse pointing at the "Replace All" button instead of "Find" - at which point it is dangerously easy to click "Replace All" whilst assuming you are clicking "Find" again! (I reported the problem on Trac about 3 years ago, but I guess it never rated high enough on the priority list?). Paul

I have to admit that I can not reproduce this (little) annoyance anymore (???) I struggled with this very frequently in the past. Maybe in the mean time this behaviour dissapeared in a newer version since november 2024, is this possible?
