Hi @abdulbadii

It sounds like you would like to change the "find" options during a "find" of the same text. Meaning:

Start search for "foo" in a document ->After first instance is found, find next (Ctrl G) but change one of the options, such as "Case sensitive"

I was just trying that out... Obviously using CTRL G doesn't allow for changing any options during a sequential search for the same string.

If you start the search by using Ctrl-F, leave the dialog box open and use the "find next" button in the lower-right of the dialog box, you can change the options each time before you press "find next".

Did I understand your question correctly?
