BUG Find Whole Word grayed out

Cannot uncheck "whole word" from Find box. It's there but grayed out. There is no way to uncheck by default. Have to open the cumbersom full search panel, but it still won't change the default.

    STILL does not work. Whole words not selected. As soon as I add anything to "replace" I get "cannot find whole word" and whole word is grayed out.

    Hi,
    You may have a tool interface open which is limiting your find/search options.
    At the top right of the window, below the "Share" button, there may be an oval "Close" button. Click that to close the selected tool interface.

    It should close that tool interface, while leaving the PDF open. Find options should now be changeable.
