Find In View Bar

About this block

Find In View Bar is the in panel find toolbar over a streamed deploy log, a query input with a live match count, previous and next buttons that step a highlighted current match through the lines, and case sensitive (Aa) and whole word (W) toggles that visibly change what counts as a hit. The current match reads in a solid tint while the rest sit dimmed.

A match finder walks each line for the query and records every hit as a span range, so the toggles simply rerun the scan with different rules. Enter jumps to the next match and Shift with Enter steps back, mirroring a real editor.

When to use

Reach for this block over any long scrolling text surface, a log stream, a diff, or a transcript, where users search within the current view rather than across the whole app. Wire the input to an incremental matcher over the visible buffer.

A natural flow around it on an Application Pro page:

Before

• Developer tools

After

• Status and health
• Activity

What you can display

One strong use is the deploy log find bar. Other in view finders:

• Diff viewer find. Step through every occurrence of a symbol inside one changed file.
• Transcript search. Jump between speaker mentions in a long meeting record.
• Console filter. Highlight matching lines in a live application console.

Tip: keep find scoped to what is on screen; a global search belongs in a separate palette, not this bar.
