In certain situations, using a regex with groups and backreferences in Find & Replace will cause the backreference to insert "$1" instead of the actual text. Steps to Reproduce: In Writer: 1. In a document, insert the following text: .AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. .BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC. DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD 2. In Find & Replace, use the following (with regex activated): Find: \b([0-9a-f]{32})\b Replace: $1 3. Note that hitting "Replace" will replace the strings of letters with themselves as expected. Then note that hitting "Replace All" will replace the A and B strings with the text "$1". Replace all results in Writer: .$1. .$1 CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC. DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD Libreoffice Calc performs the "Replace All" as expected: .AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. .BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC. DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
