I can never seem to find anything using Ctrl-F. How is it supposed to work? I'm trying to locate a word in the current view. Thanks.

I usually ask more questions than I answer but believe I can help with this one. Ctrl+F only works to find a word or phrase in the Editor window. In the Bible, Commentary or Dictionary windows, I think you'll have to click on the binocular icon to search for your word or phrase.

 

Also, I've never gotten a wildcard search to work. With Joshua 20:1 active or highlighted, searching for unint* will find nothing although the word 'unintentionally' is in the 3rd verse.

 

If I'm wrong here, I'm hoping someone will correct me and we'll both learn something.  :)  HTH!

 

Edited to add: You can click on the title bar of any of the four windows to make that the 'active' window, although actually clicking [in] the page or on a word may work better. Clicking on any word in the Bible window makes that verse the 'active' verse.
