Find and Replace | Wrap option

[Albert Dondero]

Is there an option (or enhancement request) for the Find and Replace screen that will remember the "Wrap" option, or default it to checked?

I can't seem to find anything

I tested this in version 16.0.8, and all find options (including the wrap option) are remembered, even after restarting PL/SQL Developer.

Can you let me know your PL/SQL Developer version? Can you also let me know if only the "wrap" option is not remembered, or all other options as well?

Version 16.0.7.2172

It seems like not all the options are remembered.

Can you exit PL/SQL Developer, start regedit.exe, and go to the following section:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Allround Automations\PL/SQL Developer 16\Find

In this section edit the "Wrap" value and set it to 1.

If it does not yet exist, add a new "Wrap" value of type "DWORD (32 bit)" and set it to 1.

Start PL/SQL Developer again and check if the Wrap option is now enabled by default.

I followed those steps. it seems like when the applications opens again, it resets to "0".

Can you confirm that when you start PL/SQL Developer, the registry value for "Wrap" is reset to 0?

Here is a screenshot of the Find screen when I open it. You can see the RegEdit entry is set to 1, and then the second image I have refreshed the RegEdit and it was set back to unchecked (when I closed the Find window). The find screen appears to save the currently selected value, but when I restart the application, it is always unchecked even if the setting is set to 1.

That is odd. We'll investigate!
