<p dir="auto">The simple explanation is that when requesting all matches in a document, the Find dialog needs to know if the user are making changes to the document and update the results accordingly, and right now, there is no internal API for that, so for “safety” reasons, there are no checkboxes.</p>
<p dir="auto">That said, if you press ⌃⌘R (Select current document in file browser) then ⌥⌘⇥ (move focus to file browser) and finally ⇧⌘F (bring up find in file browser selection) you <em>will</em> get checkboxes for searching the currently selected file, which should be the open document.</p>
<p dir="auto">Though this does not work for untitled documents and it does <em>not</em> solve the safety problem described above, so you could do the search, go back to the document and makes changes, then return to the find dialog and make replacements with the stale search results.</p>
<p dir="auto">It’s something that still needs a bit of work, and definitely the checkboxes ought to be there in all modes :)</p>
