FIND Function - Need option to set the default setting for find

Post by hafeesh »

please see the attache image first.

i always want to search in the bookmark only.
But the find option always ticks both "Include Page text" and "Include Bookmarks"

I have to untick the "Incluse Page text" always. !!!

Is there a way to use ONLY "Include Bookmarks"

Please give the settings on how to do this. ??

Thank you

Hello hafeesh,

I am afraid that the "include page text" option is a default that cannot currently be remembered. All other settings in the dropbox should be remembered between sessions and documents, but this one will always revert itself to active. I will bring the request to the dev team and see if we can bring it into a future build for you.

Kind regards,

Hello All,

I'd suggest a slight modification for this request:

This feature would be so useful, in my case for the Bookmarks pane, as I usually work with PDF files that can have like hundreds to thousands of Bookmarks.

The feature only would require a filter box at the top of the bookmarks pane. If you would enter any term in that filter box, every bookmark NOT containing that term simply would be hidden. Imagine how useful this would be:
