Realtime text find preview

It would be really nifty if the Text Find/Replace action had a realtime preview if used on a variable. Even something as simple as "found", "not found" or "invalid regexp" would be really handy.

(not that I don't know you guys have enough work on 6.0 as it is :))

Hi Steve,

At design time? Based on the default value of the variable? If you already know that the variable contents is static, why are you bothering to Find/Replace it at all?

Heh. No, I mean on the current value. I tend to set variables to plausible values, then run short sections of the project to debug.

Come to think of it, it would be probably be more useful just to have an explicit “test input” edit box, rather than using the variable value.
