Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/BoostIO/BoostNote-App/issues/991

Hi! Will it be possible to enable the system's Ctrl / Cmd + F feature inside a document in the future? Sometimes, when the code is long, it becomes really difficult to navigate without the "Find" tool.
Thank you!

Hi, econcz,

The code editor local search is available in latest boost note next release in file system based storages. Which boost note are you using? If you are using cloud space or legacy boost note I don't think it is available (but it should be ported to cloud later), and for legacy I am not sure.

Can you provide more info about which version, storage type and application are you using?

I'm using 0.17.1 (0.17.1) of what I believe is Boostnote Next (downloaded from https://boostnote.io).

Yeah, that's latest version, are you using cloud space with sync features?

The cloud space does not have local editor search yet, but there is sidebar search which should work fine.

The file system storages do have local search, you should be able to bring it up with Ctrl+F or as configured in Preferences | Keymap, here are examples:

You can find version info in Preferences | About as shown here:
