I frequently use the "Project Find" window.(*) I find that the
"Replace" button in there doesn't always work. Today, in a particular
task, it found 20 occurrences, and when I directed it to replace all
of them, it only replaced 10. Later, when I discovered the omissions,
I directed it to replace the remaining 10. This time it replaced 8.
Since the last two would not replace after repeated attempts, I made a
movie to document the problem...

Closing and re-opening the Project Find window did not help.
The file "Browfile.h" was also open in its own, separate window.
Closing that window did not help.
I had about a dozen other windows also open. (I use "Condensed"
layout.) Closing those dozen other windows solved the problem. It is
likely that the Browfile.m window had Browfile.h in its history,
because I also use the "Switch to Header/Source File" hotkey frequently.
In general, I have found that this occurs when I have many windows
open. (A dozen is typical for me.)
Looks like a bug I should report? Already reported? Does anyone know
how to avoid this? It's Xcode 3.1.1.
Thanks,
Jerry Krinock
(*) My apologies to the Refactor Team and Refactor Fan Club but that's
a separate topic.
