"Search" function inside Edit Expression

It could be nice to have a Search and a Search and Replace Function inside the Edit Expression.

Thank you for your feedback on ways to improve our product. While this is something we understand would be useful, it's not on the short-term roadmap. Please continue to show your support for this idea.

Thanks,

Patric

Hi - this is such a fundamental requirement - only just found the area to post ideas and can't believe this has hung around for so long! please, please can we have this ability in the expression editor (as we do in the script editor)

ps all - what I do at present is a simple copy and paste into any text editor and use the relevant find and replace function there.... then copy and paste back into the expression editor 🙂

Hi, good tip from AdyWorrall but this is a very basic function and not using this workaround costs much effort if you have to replace something in various spaces. Would be great to get it on the roadmap!
