Hi @NormanNormaldini :wave:

I don’t think there is a native way to do that. But if you use a web browser, the best workaround is using the browser search (CTRL + F on Windows)

The project will open on its default view (whatever view is currently configured as default), but you can change the default view for each project

This method doesn’t work as there are too many tasks. The gigantic list isn’t displayed all at once but loads progressively as you scroll.

I was actually hoping to avoid altering the default display.

Overall, this completely devalues the ability to visually edit. I want to transfer a large number of subtasks to another task. This can be done quickly with visual editing, but it requires having few tasks. Otherwise, you simply can’t find the tasks in the list for visual editing.

Thanks for your feedback.

Then, to avoid the topic to close itself, I will un-mark your answer as solution

Others might have more ideas :wink:
