Use CodeMirror find-in-page functionality outside edit mode

[Pin Tail]

I use TiddlyDesktop to edit TiddlyWikis and handle saving and backups. It mostly works well but one drawback is the inability to use the Ctrl-f "find-in-page" functionality common in web browsers.

One partial workaround to the problem is to install the CodeMirror editor plugin and its "Search and Replace" add-on. This allows you to use Ctrl-f when in edit mode.

I was wondering, is there any way to access the CodeMirror Ctrl-f functionality when not in edit mode, such that I could search a tiddler without having to open it for editing first?

You will have to use a search facility like advanced search to do this.

Loik around there are a number of search solutions already.

Typicaly first you find the tiddler, then the text within it.

Thanks for your reply Tony. But I'm a bit confused. Do any of these options allow me to use a keyboard shortcut to search the content currently displayed on the screen? If you could point me in the right direction I'd be very grateful.

Pin,

I can only use the in browser search for what you ask.
