[Solved] Removing paragraph break after colon

Post by HHJT »

Hi,

HOW IT LOOKS NOW:
Blablabla:
"Blablabla blablabla"

HOW I WANT IT TO BE:
Blablabla: "Blablabla blablabla"

With :$ in search it only selects the colon, so I have to do it manually. And there are hundreds of these in my document. Is there a way to replace this in one go?

Get the Altsearch extension, then it's easy.
