Searching for text within a task in desktop app

Hi!

I love to have the wrike-desktop app 👍, but I'm missing one important thing:
In the "browser-days" of wrike I hit Ctrl+F to find text within a task.
But in the desktop app Ctrl+F is doing nothing...

I hope you're building this function in soon into the desktop app, too!

Hi, is there really no option to search for texts in task descriptions? Upvoted this one in the meantime

Hi @Giulio Marino 👋 You can use the main search bar to search for text within task descriptions. Simply start your query with “Description:” followed by the text you want to find. For example:

Search: Description: CNC Machine

The search will display tasks that contain the searched keyword in their descriptions.
I hope this helps! Let us know if you have further questions 👍

Search for matches in task descriptions is really a great help.

I also noted that now you can actually search to find text within a task via the search in page feature (also triggered via Ctrl + F).

Thanks a lot! 🚀

Thanks for sharing the "Search in Page" option, @Giulio Marino, since it's available in the desktop app. 👍🏽
