How do I find text in a note?
Click in the note and choose Edit › Find…, or press ⌘F.
- Click in the pane of the note you want to search.
- Choose Edit › Find…, or press ⌘F. A find bar opens at the top right of the note.
- Type what you're looking for. Every match is highlighted, and the bar shows which one you're on, like "2 of 5".
- Press Return for the next match, or ⇧Return for the previous one.
- Press Esc, or click Close, when you're done.
Shortcut: ⌘F
Other ways
- Click Next match or Previous match in the find bar.
- Find also works on web pages. Open the page and press ⌘F. Terra selects each match, but doesn't show a count.
Good to know
- Find ignores capital letters. "terra" also finds "Terra".
- Find looks through the note's text, not its title or properties.
- Searching doesn't change the note.
- Switching to another note closes the find bar.
- To search every note in your library, press ⇧⌘F instead.
