Canvas search and quick navigation
When a canvas fills up, search is more efficient than endlessly zooming and panning. Search results can locate text, frames, and cell content in tables and swimlanes.
Steps
- 1Open search
Click the search button at the top and type a complete keyword; results update in real time as you type.
- 2Pick a result
Choose the target from the result list and the canvas moves smoothly and highlights the matching element or cell.
- 3Manage search history
Save keywords you have confirmed as history and reuse them directly for common searches; remove single entries you no longer need or clear them all.
FAQ
Can search find text inside tables?
Yes. When a match is in a table or swimlane cell, the corresponding element is located and the relevant cell is selected.
Why does history fill up after typing a single character?
Search history should only store complete keywords the user has confirmed; the live typing process is not written to history character by character.
