Ctrl + F in the editor
Hello there,
I am writing this post because I have not found a similar post.
I am currently developing a very large game ( > 5000 blocks). I use a lot of custom blocks, and sometimes there are bugs in specific custom blocks. These custom blocks are somewhat cluttered all over the place, and if there is a bug in a specific custom block, I have to search every single custom block in the worst case, which can be quite annoying.
What I am proposing is that if you search using Ctrl + F (or some custom scratch feature in the future) while in the editor, your viewport is centered on the (custom) block that you have searched, so that you don't have to drag endlessly to find that one custom block.
Let me know what you think?

Neato, but are you saying to search for a script, or a search bar for blocks?

There are many chrome extensions that implement the find function into scratch. You can go find one there!

Using some built-in input bar would be awesome
