Find replace auto character selection

While doing Find replace with the following settings,

The output limits to the number of characters comes with "Replace source". If the number of characters in "Replace  Found Text With Value" is more than the source then it will truncate the value to source. I feel it's not correct. 

 

Suggesting, that there should be an option to overwrite the "field size" or keep as it coming from source.

Thank you for the feedback!

 

I did a quick review of your idea and it looks like all the necessary components are there, so it'll be good to go to Product once the like count is met.  If you haven't, be sure to review our Submission Guidelines, which go over the board process in a bit greater detail.
