Find and Replace GUI > Replace > Preview All not working.

[Mike M]

With a document loaded, hit Ctrl-R to start the Find and Replace GUI.
Enter a "search for" phrase and a "replace with" phrase and select Preview All.
The "search for" phrase must actually exist in the document.
I get the following error:

Slick-C Error
Invalid selection handle
file=tbfind.ex offset=15260

Next, create a new document that is 10 lines of the word "test".
Now, the Preview All button is ghosted (not available).
Shouldn't it always be available?

I've confirmed the Slick-C stack and am working on a fix for it.   

The Preview Diff feature does require a file on disk to compare against.  That is an existing limitation which is why it is disabled for unnamed, unsaved file.
