Find and replace

Search inside the open note and replace what you find.

Find in the note#

  1. In a note, press Ctrl+F. The find bar opens at the top of the note.
  2. Type what you’re looking for. Every match is highlighted.
  3. Press Enter for the next match and Shift+Enter for the previous one.

Replace#

Type the new text in the find bar’s replace field, then choose replace for the current match or replace all. Options in the bar match case, use a regular expression, or match whole words.

In a locked note you can still find, but not replace.
