Quick answers

Frequently asked questions

Does Find and Replace interpret regex characters?

No. Search text is matched literally and case-sensitively. Characters such as dots and stars have no pattern meaning here.

Are dollar signs in replacement text expanded?

No. Enter your search and replacement in separate fields. Matrix inserts replacement text literally, including dollar-sign sequences such as dollar-ampersand; leave the replacement empty to delete matches.
