Numbers - How use Find like the previous version?

How can I get Numbers to show the find box like in the older version? Command-F used to pop up a scrollable box at the bottom which showed a list of all results, each in a short context of a few words, so I could easily find which entry I wanted. Now, I have to click through one at a time. Very much more labor and time intensive.

Hi druthermear,


That scrollable box is one of the losses in Numbers 3.x


But not quite 😉.

Now command f to search for 'pri'

The first occurrence is highlighted in yellow. Other occurrences have the appearance of 'lifting off the page'.


Not what you were after, but thanks for your question. It drove me to search for an answer, and I learned something new.


Regards,

Ian.
