Search when editing document #74

Open Sjeiti opened 2 years ago

Sjeiti commented 2 years ago

The browser application can at least use the browsers search. For the standalone application there is no such option which is really essential for a text editor.

Search should be accessible through keyboard shortcuts (CTRL-F, Command-F) Preferable accessible in 'focused writing` as well. And find/replace for extra points.

(ps: pardon the label 'help wanted'. This is a 'feature request', but it was either this or a 'bug report')

Thanks for reaching out @Sjeiti!

No ETA on this, but it's is definitely on our radar for future improvements to the app further down the line. It's been looked at before, but it's my understanding that a series of unexpected challenges were encountered due to the secure editors architecture of SN. At the moment, community sentiment is primarily centered around editors and SN's mobile experience, so we're working on some big refactors there first.

I'll be logging your feedback so the dev team can review it when looking at the road ahead. Feel free to add here any other comments and observations you have about what you'd like to see improved or built, I'll be happy to include them. Cheers!


PS. No worries about the label. [:
