StringReplacer not using percentage as replacement

In StringReplacer v5, if the 'Replacement Text' is set to % the transformer will only remove the 'Text To Replace' but not replace it with %.

The workaround seems to be to enter %% instead of %. That's not the expected behavior I suspect.

Have I missed something?

Cheers

@ekkischeffler I reproduced this in 2019.2. It seems to have been fixed in 2020.0 (just released this week) . I'll try and track down how this occurred.

Hello @ekkischeffler, I think it's a bug in v2019 which is quite mysterious! I have checked in v2018, there is no such kind of error.
