I load a log file and I am looking for occurrences of a substring, let's say 'foo'.
I hit ctrl+f and it takes me to the text filter field. I type 'foo' and only logs with 'foo' in it are displayed.
I believe this to be as designed.
I am wondering if there would be a way to do a standard 'find', where all instances of 'foo' are highlighted and hitting ENTER jumps between them but keeping all the logs visible ? This is often preferred over filtering because you often need to see the log lines surrounding the logs with 'foo'
Yes I understand a workaround is to filter them, mark them, then renable all logs and then jump between the marked logs, but this is extra steps and not as fluid.
Maybe a toggle switch to change filter field between filter+find? Or just add a separate "Find" feature doesnt hide all non-matches? I think filter and find are both useful and I'm not advocating to remove filter...just to add a find feature too.
Here's what I mean by standard "Find" - look what macOS console does

@hamster620 any thoughts on the possibility of this?
We still have some concerns about the suggestion on both UX and technical issues. Need more time to investigate and may not implement it in near major release.
