Find and Replace - Text
It would be great to have a generic "find and replace" inside the edit menu like most text editors have. What would be even better is if you could select the find and replace function to use the current art board, or all art boards. This is super helpful if you're mocking up redundant content that has a slight name change between screens.

Any hints on when this might be coming? It is essential to any text editing application.

Might this be in an update to the official CC release? Our product name just changed and I have to replace it in a bunch of places. *sigh*

Such a simple feature...missing! We have an app we haven't named yet. Eventually, I am going to have to go back and change "App Name" to something real. The longer I go, the more screens I build, the sadder this day will be when it comes. I can't believe more people aren't requesting this?!?!? Please implement!

I got around 60-70 artboards right now I have to check manually for a missing font... I really need this..

Needs a spell checker that can check as I type. Find & Replace would be part of that feature.

I agree. And it would be awesome a find/replace of features (color, border, font...) Illustrator style. That would be an absolute time saver with changes all across the project.

I agree with this one. 100's of artboards for a prototype software app needs a search and replace ... as the concept changes some names change and that's a big manual task.

Agree - I use XD tzo visualize Dashboards with more than 30-40 Artboards - and if just one Label changes I habe to update them manually ... hours of work for what could be half an hour just to fix some design issues

This would be fantastic for designing a lot of data tables.

Searching text and replacing it would help a lot. Or real links to external test files to update in ms word.

After just spending 4 hours replacing colours and text across 100+ artboards I REALLY think it should have this.
My eyes are bleeding!

This seems like a pretty crucial element. I've received feedback that I need to change the text from "Submit" to "Save" for clarity on every page of my project.
