Thanks for the try and the help, but if the solution requires Publisher... it's not exactly a solution.

Me? Did you read the complete thread? Many people requesting it since 2014!!!

I can't understand why you make an effort so hard on defending the lack of what in fact is an absolute standard tool in any program out there. Illustrator has it. Corel Draw has it. Inkscape has it. Freehand has (or had) it. Do you need me to continue? Affinity Publisher may be an excellent program to edit books, leaflets and so on, but what are you telling us? That we cannot work in designs with lots of texts in Affinity Designer? That we cannot work on designs with repetitive pieces on them? What about labels, tickets, checks...? There's no excuse.

You just have to look at the competitors. There is an enormous and complex Find and Replace tool in Illustrator (not only for text). Damn, it was even in the old Freehand! I'm really angry with Affinity today. This is a big nonsense.

I don't agree with that opinion. Find and replace is an essential function almost in every program... and also fundamental when designing, while there are many repetitive designs with text that you can do (i.e. labels). This lack is unfair and stupid. I now have many hours to do a task that should take a couple of minutes.

WTF??? There's no Find and Replace function in Affinity Designer!!! I just came to question where it was. I can't believe it...

Totally agree to this request, and I must say I can't believe that we have to pray for this basic feature.
