How are you running AnythingLLM?

AnythingLLM desktop app

What happened?

In versions prior to v1.11.1/v1.11.2, pressing Cmd+F in a chat thread opened a small find/search overlay UI within the thread. This no longer works as of v1.11.2 and persists in v1.12.0.

What happens now: Pressing Cmd+F causes the chat thread to scroll/jump upward unexpectedly, and no find UI appears.

What I expected: The in-thread find overlay to appear, allowing text search within the conversation.

Environment:

  • Version: 1.12.0 (also confirmed in 1.11.2)
  • Platform: macOS, Apple Silicon
  • Last known working: prior to v1.11.1 UI redesign

The scroll jump on Cmd+F suggests the keypress is still being caught somewhere — the custom find UI may have been dropped or broken as part of the chat UI overhaul in v1.11.1/v1.11.2?

Are there known steps to reproduce?

  1. Open AnythingLLM Desktop (macOS, Apple Silicon)
  2. Open any workspace with an existing chat thread
  3. Press Cmd+F
  4. Observe: thread scrolls upward unexpectedly, no find overlay appears

@timothycarambat commented on GitHub (Apr 6, 2026):

Got this patched and will be back in next release - was result of the complex merge from the whole new UI layout and that was desktop specific 👍

Thanks for reporting.
