ISSUE: Table View in desktop app: Ctrl+F search field useful?

Avatar
Jürg Schneider

The search field opened with Ctrl+f only finds items currently visible on the screen but not those outside the scrolled area. This is confusing.

The other search field on the top right corner finds all items, globally.

So to my understanding, the Ctrl+f search should find any items in the filtered view, including those outside the scrolled area.

Have the Wrike Team come up with a solution of this suggestion?

We are having the same issue, it's not helpful if we can't find items outside of the scrolled area. 

I have the Wrike App open to full height of my screen, I click on my keyboard  CTRL + F to search, then I paste the name "Benjamin Adams" after I'm done pasting I have 0 of 0 results. Nothing is highlighted.
 
I know I have a user with that name so I scroll down the page and click again on the up and down arrows of the search box at the top, this time his name is visible on the screen so it  finds it and highlights it. 
 
Is there a way that can find it without me scrolling down?
