How do you use replace in Spyder?

Question

Well, you start with cursor on your text, Ctrl+H and type replacement. But surprisingly i was not able to found any shorcut for actual replace or replace all action, rather than tabbing 5(!) times or moving my hand for a mouse.

Straightforward enter does nothing, tabbing to replace button and entering replaces, but throws me into the editor. VisualStudio-like Alt+A does nothing.

Am i missing something in spyder shortcuts?

Answer 1

The shortcut for replace is Ctrl + R.

Answer 2

I have the same issue with Spyder, I don't know why this has not been implemented in the editor.

The work around I currently have for multiple replace is to :

1. Copy the replacement term to the clipboard

2. Search(Find/Replace) for the term to replace

3. Use F3 to select the next term

4. Use paste Ctrl+V to replace it

5. Back to step [3] to find the next term

Hope this helps!

EDIT:

According to Spyder dev @carlos below. Since v3.2 This has now been implemented and you may just press and move to the next term.
