The Find command lets you find text in the current map. You can find the topics one by one, then edit and move on to the next. Or you can find and select all the matching topics, so you can edit them as a group (for example, apply icons or colors to add visual cues and allow filtering), copy them, or delete them from the map.
To find a text in other maps or files, use the Search
command.
You can also find topics based on their markers.
To find and select all topics with matching text in combination with other
properties, use Power Select.
The Replace command finds the text and replaces it with text you enter. You can step through matching topics one at a time, or replace all the matching text in the map.
The Find and Replace Options let you:
specify which map elements to include in the search (choose topic text, notes, hyperlinks, or task info)
