Text Search feature in Affinity Designer

[atoms]

Please add the option to search & replace text in Affinity Designer. It would be super useful to replace special characters.

I would also very much like this, please.

I draw commented maps that contain thousands of symbols with several hundred comments. Keeping terminology consistent across comments is very difficult without a text search&replace function.

If you have APublisher, in which the mentioned function is of course implemented, use the Edit in Publisher... command.

Thanks for this suggestion. I found in the help section: "To edit content in a different app:

• With content selected, from the File menu, select ... Edit in Publisher."

The "edit in publisher" option in the file menu is greyed out, whether I select text of not. How would I  select all the art text and all the frame text, and all the line text?

That means, with a file open. It allows you to send the complete file to a different Affinity application.

Required conditions:

1. You have that other application installed; and
2. Its release/version matches that of the application you're sending from. So, if you have 2.2 of one Affinity application installed, you cannot send to 2.1 of another application, or to 1.10 of another application. Both would need to be at 2.2.

Thank you Walt. I'll update A.Publisher. It is still version 2.1
