I have several SFC’s that are fairly large and have a lot of action blocks. I’d like to search within the SFC for chart scoped variables, but the search function seems to only search the other areas within ignition. I cant find a way to search for the use of variables within the SFC blocks.

Am I missing something? Is there an easy way to search for chart scope variable use locations.

I’ve never seen a way to do this, but it would be helpful. If you want to suggest it, I’ll help vote it up.
