Please allow to search within the table of available commands!

The command table is basically a big SWT browser control and your (platform-specific?) search key should already work. On my Windows system I press Ctrl+F.

Closing as worksforme. Please reopen if it still doesn't work on your system.

What underlying browser is that on Mac?
Comment 6 Marco Descher CLA 2014-12-18 02:52:32 EST 
According to https://www.eclipse.org/swt/faq.php#browserplatforms it should be WebKit.
Comment 7 Eike Stepper CLA 2014-12-18 03:02:29 EST 
In my Mac virtual box I could reproduce:

1) In Safari option+f opens a search bar at the top of the browser page.
2) In SWT's browser control that doesn't work.

I've googled a little bit but found nothing that suggests how to make this work on Mac. I'm marking this bugzilla as helpwanted because I have no experience with Mac.

One more note: Eclipse's "Internal Web Browser" has the same problem. That could mean that this enhancement request should be moved to SWT.
Comment 9 Eike Stepper CLA 2014-12-18 03:46:42 EST 
There's not much we can do in Oomph to make this work. Moving to SWT.
