Description
Description of the Issue
Only by right-clicking on replace dialog, you discover some commands
from 8.5.1 release note (release candidate)
“Add ability to copy “Find what” to “Replace with” and vice versa in Find Replace dialog. (Fix #12122 )”
See also the topic in the community announcement Notepad++ v8.5.1 Release Candidate
Steps to Reproduce the Issue
- open find replace dialog, replace section
- right click on the icon close to "find what"
- some functionalities appear (you have to know that by right-clicking somewhere, something happens)
Expected Behavior
To make this feature more discoverable
(even if you wrote that on the manual, you would look for a manual only whether you think you need to understand something better)
A possible solution could be to modify the current button

in order to get something like that

Another solution could be to add 3 different buttons
Actual Behavior
feature hardly discoverable
