If the "parenthesis" regexes work for you and also same rules are valid for those hex codes then it should be not difficult to rewrite them to a "hexa" variants.

Hi Fleggy,
The final solutions that you posted are crashing my UEStudio for some reason when I use it in a macro. So I was using your earlier replace combinations given below
And it seems to work fine as of now. Can you tell me why you wanted to update these replace sequences?
Is there a chance that using it might replace something wrong and modify/delete any text?
I'm a bit hesitant using it.
Thanks in advance.

Code: Select all
1) Repeat until nothing is replaced.
Find what: (?s)(?<=<(italic)>)(\(((?>(?:(?:(?![()])(?!</?(?!WRK)\b).)++(?:<((?!WRK)[^>]++)>(((?>(?:(?!<\4\b)(?!</\4\b).)++|<\4\b[^>]*+>(?5))*+)</\4>))?)|(?2))*+)\))(?=</\1>)
Replace with: ~~\3~~
2) Repeat until nothing is replaced.
Find what: (?s)\(((?>(?:(?:(?![()])(?!</?(?!WRK)\b).)++(?:<((?!WRK)[^>]++)>(((?>(?:(?!<\2\b)(?!</\2\b).)++|<\2\b[^>]*+>(?3))*+)</\2>))?)|(?R))*+)\)
Replace with: ^[^\1^]^
3) Final replacements:
F: (<italic>)(?:\(|~~)
R: (\1
F: (?:\)|~~)(</italic>)
R: \1)
F: \^\[\^
R: (
F: \^\]\^
R: )

Hi Don,
it is almost sure that UES crashes because of named backreferences in the replace patterns. I've already sent an error report to IDM. You can try this simple workaround: use the more complex find patterns and change the first and second replace pattern to
~~\3~~
and
^[^\2^]^
The reason why I updated these regexes is simple. The updated versions are not influenced by unbalanced parenthesis in nested tags potentially found between <italic> and </italic>.
E.G.
<italic>(changes <xref ...">(6))</xref> from VB 6)</italic>
