Suggestion: Visual clue for search/replace and changes in Multi-rename tool

Post by *Helix751 »

Hi.

I have always wished there was a way to spot which files will actually be renamed or even which strings do actually match some of the search criteria (especially for saved [F2] search+replace settings).

Something like the File-compare tool behavior would be perfect: For instance, a marker for files that match criteria, a yellow background highlight on the left column for strings that meet search criteria and orange background highlighting on strings at the right column for changes to be applied would greatly help to debug a search expression (especially for regular expressions or complex search strings) and/or to easily know which files will actually be affected.

Thanks in advance
Regards,
Sergio
