In previous (python) interactive window, I was able to (in macOS) use cmd+F to search/find text in interactive window. I relied on this feature a lot, since I read python docstrings mostly in interactive window, and when you read docs, you use text search to quickly locate keywords.

In the new native interactive window, it seems we don't have text search anymore. I would be very happy if I am mistaken, if I am not, then It would be great to have this feature back.

I can search the cells, but not the output.

you need to change the filter to look in the output. does it work when you set that?

[rzhao271]

That works. The found text is bolded, but it's not very noticeable to me. I wonder if adding an underline or outline could help. I can also create a new feature request for it if that works better.

thanks, yeah that could be improved. The same issue exists in notebooks as well.
