Find/Select elements via Custom Properties and Description researchs

+8 votes

It is currently possible to search through nodes or edges via only one text field, the "main label".

Text driven research should be possible on additional fields. Thus :

  • Description,
  • URL,
  • Custom Properties,
  • ...

should also be researchable.

Such a behaviour of the find/selector functions would enhance the power of research through graphs. In addition it would increase the interest of tailor-made custom properties.

If we were able to use default character search (eg: *, +, !), it would be a great advantage to navigate on big graphs.
