Description Vincent Untz 2012-01-26 10:31:07 UTC 
My first thought was "I'd like to search in my documents", and I saw nothing to do that -- no search entry, no menu item, no toolbar button.

After 10 minutes, I came back and wondered if ctrl+f did something. And it did.

This should be more discoverable, really. At least with a menu item.

FYI, you can also just start typing your query and the search bar will appear. I recognize this is not easily discoverable though...
Comment 2 Jorge Meneses 2012-05-01 23:02:20 UTC 
If I haven't read about it has this feature I wouldn't been able to find how to search. Maybe a button would be useful. Regards!
Comment 3 Marina Zhurakhinskaya 2012-06-12 03:46:54 UTC 
I agree that there should be some visual indication that you can start searching.
Comment 4 Cosimo Cecchi 2012-07-19 18:50:16 UTC 
I now added toolbar buttons for Search, closing as FIXED.
