Forums » CircuitLab Feature Requests

Although Ctrl-F seems to work to search a circuit diagram, CL does not then highlight found items in the circuit diagram itself so netnames and other items can be hard to find if they are scattered across a big circuit.

Thanks,

Hmmm … @signality

I don’t know exactly what you mean, because when I edit a diagram (“build”) and use my browser’s (Safari) “find” (invoked by cmd+f) to find e.g. node “VCC” it tells me “3 matches” and the first match is highlighted (yellow). I can then jump forth and back between highlighted results.

Is this browser depending or do you suggest a different functionality?

Using Chrome Version 21.0.1180.89 on Crunchbang Linux (Waldorf development images), it only highlights stuff outside the schematic editor window, not text within the actual circuit diagram in the editor window.

So it seems to be a browser issue (albeit the JavaScript code may be different in this point even within the same WebKit browser engine) ?
