What platform are you running Path of Building on?

Windows

Is your feature request related to a problem?

Yes, it's not currently possible to search a large amount of text in a sometimes very long text box. Having to copy/paste it to Notepad feels like 1995! :)

Describe the solution you'd like

Would like a basic Search box (like the one at the bottom of the passive tree), that searches the Notes.

Describe alternatives you've considered

No response

Additional context

I would suggest ignoring color coding syntax, ie ^x3F6DB3 ^7

Research direction

Start by locating the Notes tab and the existing search box at the bottom of the passive tree, then inspect how the Notes text and color-coding syntax are handled. Done means a basic search box can find text in long Notes content while ignoring color-coding syntax such as ^x3F6DB3 and ^7.
