@EhudLevitin
Implementing Strg+F in data view is certainly a valid request.
Until this is implemented - if I want to find a specific value in a large file, I open the label editor by double clicking the variable name and put a noticable label on the values I want to locate. Then I can easier recognize them while scrolling. Not that efficient, I know...

A search in the data view would be an important function, especially for finding variables in large data sets. Is there already a schedule for when this function will be implemented?

In a development branch Ive added columnfiltering jasp-stats/jasp-desktop#5783

I can do something similar for rows, then you could select the cell and see only those occurences (and thus find their location easily). This is a rather involved change bringing many other things but this fits in really nicely actually. Im hoping to add this to the release version sometime in the next year, maybe early spring.
