How do I :substitute inside a selection? [duplicate]

Question

The command :'<,'>s/search/replace/g will replace in the whole line of the current selection, but what if I want to substitute only inside the current selection, not the whole line?

Update: Found the duplicate.

Answer 1

Use :'<,'>s/\%Vsearch/replace/g

From help substitute:

For the definition of a pattern, see |pattern|.  In Visual block mode, use
|/\%V| in the pattern to have the substitute work in the block only.
Otherwise it works on whole lines anyway.
