Search & Filtering

Filtering the list

The list column has an inline filter bar (the filter button above the list). Type to narrow the visible entities, and use the scope chip to say where to look:

Scope	Matches
Anywhere	All of the below
Name	Entity names only
Headings	Markdown headings in bodies
Body	Body prose
Comments	%% comment lines
Annotations	Annotation quotes and their targets
Fields	Custom field values

Scoped search is how you ask questions like "where did I leave a %% TODO comment" or "which entities mention trap street in a heading" without leaving the keyboard.

Find in the current document

⌘F opens the standard find bar in the editor; ⌘⌥F adds replace. This is per-document — use the list filter for project-wide questions.

Navigation as search

Two features often replace searching entirely:

• Referenced By in the inspector — instant backlinks for the selected entity.
• ⌘-click on any [[reference]] — jump straight to the mentioned entity, then ⌘[ to come back.
