Hmm, just for reference CMD+F works for me (I'm on a Mac atm).
Have you cross tested on something else (a PDF or whatever) to make sure the issue isn’t with the keyboard or OS settings? I logged on today and my mouse was molasses slow because Logi Options updated. I could also imagine that if you’re a keyboard guy (like me) you’ve got a mechanical with macro layers and perhaps it’s referencing the wrong layer?
Just providing troubleshoot options that aren’t reliant on AT support haha 🤷
@Aaron_Hess
I can confirm that command-F and control-F do not work on the interface grid view.
Command-F and control-F still work as expected on the data layer’s grid view, but not on the interface’s grid view.
It looks like Airtable has changed the keyboard shortcut for searching interface grid views on the Mac to Option Forward Slash, and on Windows to Alt Forward Slash.
Yet it is still command-F and control-F to search the grid view in the data layer.
This certainly makes no sense at all. I would much prefer for this to be command-F or control-F.
But most importantly, I would much prefer for the keyboard shortcuts to remain 100% completely consistent throughout all of Airtable.
Please be sure to escalate this issue to Airtable Support at support@airtable.com, and also, be sure to submit this as a feature request via the Product Feedback Form.
@DisraeliGears01 Your command-F might be triggering your web browser’s find function, not Airtable’s find function. Also, you might be in a Data Grid View instead of an Interface Grid View.
Hope this helps!
