Option to search in process design for impact analysis

When there is a complex and large process designed in DevOps Deploy, if someone want to know what are the steps which use property "jes.host" there is no easier way to find it. We have two options, either we open the processes one by one and check manually or export the process and open in a editor and scroll back-and-forth to get the steps using a particular property or "string"

What if we can have an option to search for a string in the process design. If the steps contain the searched string change the colour of the step from default purple to some other colour. This way it will be helpful 

* When you have to change some hardcoded values across multiple steps or refactor it to a property instead of hardcoded value.

* Understanding impact of a property before changing its value

    After careful review of this idea, the team feels this is a much larger effort and the prioritization of this idea based on value to clients is lower than others at this time. As a result, we are moving this to the 'Not under consideration' status for now. If you would like to discuss further, please do share this with your lab client advocate to discuss further and perhaps this can be re-visited by our team.

    In the meantime, you can export the process and use the editor search feature to get the value of the non-secure property. This would be the workaround to achieve this.

    Hi, we support the idea, at the moment it's an absolute pain point to find where a property is used.
