Do you know about the Rota and it's different features? If you are in safari and need to work through things then the rota has things such as viewed links, links Headings containers Buttons, And a truckload of others, I'd say use those to find what your looking for.
-----Original Message----- From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of B G Sent: Saturday, 8 June 2019 12:55 PM To: macvisionaries <[email protected]> Subject: General Screen search on iOS Unless the feature exists already -- and has therefore hitherto escaped my notice -- a general screen search tool on iOS would come in very handy. Suppose you're in Safari and the information, e.g. a phone number, is many lines or even screens down. Rather than traversing everything before you get to it, you would perform a unique gesture, e.g. a two-finger rest i.e. tap and hold in position, followed by a thumb swipe to pull up a search dialogue box. You would enter your search text and press enter (or perform a two-finger right swipe on the onscreen Braille keypad) and voila, focus is positioned at the start of your search result! Of course, you could make the feature as fancy and elaborate as you want but its very basic function should be searching for the next occurrence of the search string, and positioning focus at start of said string. What does the list think? Any comments, criticisms, any flaws in the idea, all welcome. I'm hoping once we've hammered out something we could all agree on we will then present it to Apple as a feature request.
