Description

The new Find screen has the option to search across all open graphs which is fantastic. Thanks for making this.

There is a slight improvement that could be made - the search all open graphs is finding the values on the other graphs that I have open but it is not automatically displaying the graph where the value is present. It would be better if it did this similar to how excel works when searching the entire workbook.

In the below gif I have 3 graphs which all have the same added component which has the value "Sarah". Constellation doesn't show the graph that has the value. I have to manually open it and look for the red highlighted value.

FindonAllGraphs

The same applies for Find and Replace across all graphs, When "Search all open graphs" is enabled, it doesn't show the other graph that has the value automatically but it has replaced the FIRST value that equals what you are looking for. The second value is not replaced. Replace

Steps to Reproduce

See above

Expected behaviour: When using the new Find and selecting the option to Search All option graphs, the next graph with the value is automatically displayed without me having to click on it.

Actual behaviour: The Find is matching the correct values but it is not displaying the graph which has them, this part is manual at the moment.

**Reproduces how often:**100%
