Description Ulrich Windl 2014-05-12 06:35:04 UTC 
It is possible to search (and replace) paragraph styles, but you cannot search for character styles. Please add that feature!

Hi Ulrich,

I love the idea. (Even thought I already submitted it ;) )

Thanks, Cor
Comment 2 Gilvan Vilarim 2014-05-13 23:21:08 UTC 
I agree that it is a good idea. Search and Replace should let the user choose which kind of style to search for, not only paragraph styles.

Best regards,
Gilvan.

In addition, I would appreciate if you could attribute a certain character style to a search string. If I remember it well, this was possible in MS Word, too.

Frank comment #3, that would need to be a separate bug - searching first to see if already created somewhere.

Since searching for paragraph styles is already implemented, adding character style search shouldn't be very difficult.

I was about to suggest the same thing
Comment 12 Ransom 2024-07-08 14:41:28 UTC 
I have also been missing the option to search for Character Styles in the “Find and Replace” function for a long time. This suggestion for improvement here is now a good 10 years old …
