calc doc showing sheet 2 Search/Find bug

Find does not not work on the attached CALC document in sheet #2. Find/Replace will however work but dialog defaults to formula and must be changed to Value for it to work. I suspect Find is somehow defaulting to a "Formula" search and there is no way in the Find dialog to reset this to "Value".

will add another attachment. I believe the bug is one of finding computed text i.e. where text on second sheet is reference from the first sheet.

cleaner spreadsheet where sheet 2 has ref text from sheet 1.  cntl-f does not find the ref text on sheet 2.

Closing this bug out. The cntl-f find will find value text but not computed text which is probably by design.

I am not sure if I get the versions right, but 4.1 probably used Ctrl+H search dialog settings. So by then you could Ctrl+H, change settings, search for something and then Ctrl+F search would do the same thing.

Right now since Ctrl+H does not affect the settings for Ctrl+F anymore, it is almost a duplicate of this: #102506
