Hello,
First, I apologize if I I've overlooked something, however I can't get the new Find & Replace window working as in DW 2015.
This is the new Find and Replace window:
FIRST QUESTION:
Where is the "Find All" button? There are many circumstances for which I really need to get a list of the occurrences found, even when searching within the current document only (for proper work-flow, it's not enough to just browse back and forth using the two arrows). As displayed below, the search result window remains totally empty, even if there are 11 occurrences found:
SECOND QUESTION:
I haven't found any way to undock the Find & Replace window, but it can be displayed only on top of the current document, taking lot of space. I really need to undock the Find and Replace window, and to drag it on a secondary monitor, to maximize editing space. This was perfectly possible in DW 2015, as displayed below:
Please help!
Hi everyone,
UPDATE: Feature changes to Find and replace will be available later in 2017. The latest version has some critical bug fixes.
See Dreamweaver 2017.0.1 is now live for more info.
Thanks,
Preran

It is 10-31-2017. I just reverted from 2018 to 2015. The same problems are in 2018 as mentioned above.

They aren't "problems" anymore, now they're "features".
This is just the way it works now: Two separate find & replace tools. All of the options except for saving or loading queries are available, in different locations, with some being closed, collapsed, or out of view by default.

You are correct. In fact, you can still save and load queries. If you click on the circled ? button in the lower left corner, it will take you to
Find and replace text, tags, and attributes
On the right side are links such as
It looks like some of the features are hidden by default, but you can make them active by making changes to the registry or preferences on a MAC.
