Yes that would be great @skprabhanjan! I want the same button that supports the same "preserve case" logic, but when using search in the side bar. Here is basically what you need to do:

The original PR is here: #60311

Add the same button to the replace input that the find widget got
Add plumbing for a "preserve case" option that goes along with the "is regex" and "whole word" and other options

We compute the replace string for search here:

vscode/src/vs/workbench/contrib/search/common/searchModel.ts

Line 99 in ca2eb3b

get replaceString(): string {

and we need to take the "preserve case" option into consideration here too. So we need to use this same code:

vscode/src/vs/editor/contrib/find/replacePattern.ts

Lines 55 to 64 in ca2eb3b

    
           if (matches[0].toUpperCase() === matches[0]) { 
        
           	return this._state.staticValue.toUpperCase(); 
        
           } else if (matches[0].toLowerCase() === matches[0]) { 
        
           	return this._state.staticValue.toLowerCase(); 
        
           } else if (containsUppercaseCharacter(matches[0][0])) { 
        
           	return this._state.staticValue[0].toUpperCase() + this._state.staticValue.substr(1); 
        
           } else { 
        
           	// we don't understand its pattern yet. 
        
           	return this._state.staticValue; 
        
           }

ideally copying it into a shared file so that find and search will use the same preserve case logic.

Should be relatively straightforward, let me know if that doesn't make sense.

	if (matches[0].toUpperCase() === matches[0]) {
	return this._state.staticValue.toUpperCase();
	} else if (matches[0].toLowerCase() === matches[0]) {
	return this._state.staticValue.toLowerCase();
	} else if (containsUppercaseCharacter(matches[0][0])) {
	return this._state.staticValue[0].toUpperCase() + this._state.staticValue.substr(1);
	} else {
	// we don't understand its pattern yet.
	return this._state.staticValue;
	}

Implement case preservation in search as well #78397
