Is help page wrong?  Or is this a Find-Replace bug?

> Is help page wrong?  Or is this a Find-Replace bug?

The help page is wrong.  It needs to specify that the "individual words" attribute is set for the characters.
Comment 2 sdc.blanco 2021-01-09 15:47:28 UTC
Also on same help page.  Need to update that underline and strikethrough is not limited to the cases mentioned.  Need to add "Overline" attribute.  And update some labels.
