UX Improvement: Show Search Scope Options Before Search Execution

Description:

When using Find and Replace in Figma, the search scope (Search in this file / Search in all pages) can be clearly visible and configurable before the search begins.

Currently, if “Search in all pages” remains selected from a previous search, users may unintentionally perform a broader search than intended.
 

Suggested Improvement:

• Display the search scope options before executing the search.

• Make the currently selected scope clearly visible.

• Allow users to switch between “Search in this file” and “Search in all pages” before execution.

• Consider defaulting to the current page/file scope when appropriate, rather than retaining a broader scope without sufficient visibility.
   

Rationale:
This would improve user control, prevent unintended broad searches, and potentially reduce unnecessary processing time in large files.
 

Expected Outcome:
Users can make an informed scope selection before each search, improving predictability, efficiency, and overall usability.
