Searching Within an Opened Document #101065

https://thebrain.zendesk.com/agent/tickets/101065

Hello Dr. Kereky,

Thank you for the screenshots. I understand the issue.

The main Brain search can find terms such as “memorable” inside indexed notes/documents, which is why the item appears in the search results. However, once the document is opened, the Find in Note command applies to the Thought Note text itself, not to the opened document/attachment viewer.

For now, please try opening the document outside the built-in viewer, then use the browser or external document viewer’s search command.

You can do this by using the open/external button for the document, or by right-clicking the document and choosing the option to open it in the browser or external viewer. Once it opens there, use Ctrl+F on Windows or Command+F on macOS to search within the document.

For the ability to search or jump directly within an opened document from TheBrain’s built-in viewer, the best place to post that suggestion is UserVoice so other users can vote and add their use cases:
