Hello everyone,

I just discovered this trick for searching for specific content in Numbers.

• Set a hotspot on the table without interacting with it;
• Press Cmd-f to open the Search field;
• Stop interacting until you've stopped interacting with the scroll area;
• Navigate down to the next scroll area and set another hotspot;
• Press Cmd-f to hide the Search area.

Now, when you need to search for something, just press Cmd-f, enter the string 
and press Return. Go to the hotspot you sett on the Search area and select the 
result you want. Bring the mouse and press VO-Shift-Space then jump to the 
hotspot you set on the table. Just interact and you'll be on the selected cell.

This method removes the need to turn off cursor tracking, and minimises the 
amount of interacting and uninteracting you have to do.

I tried this from all over a spreadsheet with over 400 lines and it worked 
every time.

Cheers,

Anne
