Description ulfzibis 2008-09-10 17:48:08 UTC 
[ BUILD # : 200809031401 ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.6.0_07 ]

For me it's annoying that I have to newly open "Edit->Find", if "Find
in Projects..." doesn't serve my needs.

Also it's annoying, that only "Find in Projects..." is reachable from
the toolbar.

For inspiration see sophisticated dialogue from Notepad++ in the
attachment.

Find and Replace in Projects are part of netbeans core. Find and replace are part of netbeans editor, which is different project. 

They have now different UI. Former are in dialog, Latter are in Bars.

This change will be in 7.1.
