Tracked in Phabricator
Task T188651 Resolved

The research of regular expression like the character "\n" does not give any result on a page even if the page contains such characters and the option regular expression is checked.

To reproduce:

1) Go to https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Newline&action=edit

2) Switch to visual mode

3) Type Ctrl + F.

4) Check the option Regular expression and search for "\n"

@Sissssou, hi. I don't remember reading anything about this. Do you think you could report this as a bug on Phabricator? (Directions on the right column of VisualEditor/Feedback). TYVM!

Done, Task: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T188651.

Awesome! I added the visuualeditor tag, but other than that, we're set. Again, thanks!
