Search tool in Form Designer

A search tool in the Form Designer where one can input part ot whole name of a control or Binding and system then highlights or focuses on that control within the form.


Additional information:

I was looking at future functionality similar to searching in a word document or PDF document where after you type in a term in the search box you can use the arrows and it will focus on the selected word.

Using the current functionality proves a bit hard to see the highlighted control, especially when one is colourblind. For some controls it works fine, for some it's hard to distinguish the highlighted with the non-highlighted. Notwithstanding the above for complex forms, it is a bit of an effort to scroll up and down the form to find the relevant control.

    Thank you for the additional information. I've re-opened the idea and will discuss options with our UX design team.

    The drop down in the top right of the tool bar serves this purpose. Click into it and start typing and it will filter the list. Select anything and it will highlight the selected control in the form layout. Is there additional functionality you need?
