| Sep 27, 2019 at 15:45 | comment | added | EBassal | Thanks for the details. This is great. I'll try it for a few days and see if the need for it to be scripted emerges ;) I'll accept your answer because I don't think it's gonna get any better than this! | |

| Sep 27, 2019 at 14:13 | comment | added | Vinny | And yes, you are correct, you have to copy an anchored frame before running the regex. Also you have to check the xref panel. Of course, the whole thing could be scripted. If you look for a scripter, let me know, i can recommand one (not me ^^) | |
| Sep 27, 2019 at 14:08 | comment | added | Vinny | ~F means footnote mark (it also includes the ones at the bottom, so make sure you pick the right paragraph style in the search scope) \K is a positive lookbehind [^.........] is a negative character class and ~a is an anchored object marker. So basically it says find the first character after a footnote marker if not followed by an anchored object then change to copied content and the found result | |

When you have the time, could you explain what the GREP expression used in the search/replace does, in more detail? Thanks! So the only downside is that I have to replace the original box in the buffer before every seach/replace? | |
