I see that I've spelled Momma and Mama throughout the manuscript. I'd love to be able to search and fix all of them to be consistent.

There is a Find & Replace feature in Dabble. Is there something specific about it that needs improving? Thanks! -

IsoI can not belive that this is not getting more votes! It is a sticking point for me. I need this one. Otherwise I have to do it after import, which means wait until the complete manuscript is finished or piece it out and put it back. A back and forth is messy, prone to mistakes, and could upset formatting. This is such an important feature that it will be a sticking point to staying with dabble.

Marie BoucherWell, John. If it was an easy feature to find it wouldn't have been suggested. Tell us where you've hidden the find and replace feature.

JohnBredesen AdminHi Marie, apologies for not being more clear. You are correct, it is not obvious. CTRL-F (PC) or CMD-F (Mac) will bring up the Find & Replace tool. Use the gear icon on the left edge to select the options you want. The default is Find, but the gear lets you choose other options like Find&Replace.
In the main Dabble window, you can find the Help Center under the question mark in the top right corner (above the goals). It opens your web browser to https://help.dabblewriter.com/en/ and you can search from there.
