Comment 16 for bug 909328

1) > but I wanted to quickly select all paths
The Find text is now re-selected after a search, so you can quickly press the 'Delete' key to remove previous text.

> if all properties are deactivated, should not any find string be ignored ?
Yes this works, but for consistency i suggest we disable the Find/Replace buttons if either - no properties are selected, or no objects are selected. Searching for text 'something' inside properties 'nothing' should logically give nothing ?

> the string "foo" seems to get matched, but against which property?
Should not get a match against anything. Can you check in the XML Editor if "foo" is in any attribute ? I can't reproduce this.

> 2) Could there be some kind of check that 'All Types' gets activated by default
How about we disable the Find/Replace buttons if no objects are selected with status 'No objects selected' ?

Patch for above suggestions tested on Ubuntu 11.10 and attached.
