## Поставувања

Define the criteria for determining if a word is similar to the search term.

### Размени знаци

Enter the number of characters in the search term that can be exchanged. For example, if you specify 2 exchanged characters, "sweep" and "creep" are considered similar.

### Додај знаци

Enter the maximum number of characters by which a word can exceed the number of characters in the search term.

### Отстрани знаци

Enter the number of characters by which a word can be shorter than the search term.

### Комбинирај

Searches for a term that matches any combination of the similarity search settings.

Using Combine better meets a user's expectations from looking at the settings, but may return false positives. Not using Combine may match less than expected, but does not return false positives.

A Weighted Levenshtein Distance (WLD) algorithm is used. If Combine is not checked, then settings are treated as an exclusive-OR (strict WLD).If Combine is checked, then settings are treated as an inclusive-OR (relaxed WLD).

Be careful when using Replace All with Similarity Search. Best to be certain first about what will be found.
