Find hard carriage return with the Find/Replace tool does not work. This used to work in at least some older versions of OOo. Check regular expressions, enter $ or \N, no results are ever found. Soft carriage returns (\n) *are* found, just not hard ones. Thanks, Lance
Platform: SLED 11 sp1 i586 build info: Libreoffice 3.4 release The $ and \n works properly for 3.4 build.
Thanks for the info Yifan, Somewhat confirmed...It now works going forwards. Now, I'm not sure if anyone would ever *want* to find/replace $ going backwards, but that currently does not work. Lance
Stripping-out multiple carriage returns also fails: Finding ${2,8} returns nothing

Dear bug submitter! Due to the fact, that there are a lot of NEEDINFO bugs with no answer within the last six months, we close all of these bugs. To keep this message short, more infos are available @ https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/NeedinfoClosure#Statement Thanks for understanding and hopefully updating your bug, so that everything is prepared for developers to fix your problem. Yours! Florian
In 3.6.1 on Fedora 64 bit: search with $ works correctly, replacing - not. For example enter one line of text, several empty lines, another line. Then replace all occurrences of $ to empty line. Appears two lines in result, but should be one. search with ${2,8} not works. And $* not works

It is still impossible to search & replace multiple hard carriage returns (blank lines) Search for ^$^$ returns zero results; I believe OOo used to search for this using \N\N which also does not work in LibreOffice. Now using Version: 4.3.5.2 on Xunubtu.
