In Ulysses, you can search a sheet, a group, or your entire library. Learn how search works in three simple steps.
A filter might be the way to go if you search for the same words or tags regularly. Find out more in this article:
Mac
- To search within a sheet, open a sheet and then on the magnifier in the upper right corner. A search field will open.
If the search word is within a footnote press ⌘G to go directly to the search result within the footnote.

Per default, this action searches anywhere in the group, but you can also set the filter to search specifically in headings, keywords etc. Simply click on the arrow next to Anywhere to change the setting.
