Thank you. Sorry I wrote too briefly.

I did consult the Sigil_User_Guide_2022.02.01 and was aware of View > Preview > F10. I thought that since Sigil is so customizable I could add an Icon to the Main UI icon bar or even a plugin could be assigned if there was one which I didn't find nor yet aware of how to write one. The desire being a 1-click toggle. I use a 2-click and right click the top Icon bar and select > Preview from that contextual menu. It's not a big deal in the scheme of things, but thought I'd ask.

More of a problem with Preview is that it does not highlight the "Find:" even though the Preview widget is dynamic.

It would assist me if the highlight in code view showed in Preview or even if there was an option to show the Line & Column in Preview. It would make my work faster.

I did not find a Plugin Preview that has “Find:" It's not in Readium, Bibi, nor EpubJS that I can see. Even if they did, Preview loads quicker and mirrors the Code View edits.

PageEdit only Finds text on the single page, not thru the whole epub. Do tell if I'm wrong on that.

Any suggestion other than get more comfortable reading text in Code View?

Again, in the scheme of how much I love Sigil, these are minor issues, but thought I'd ask.
