Find property nodes for specific property only

I know that the Find panel offersi me the option of searching by text, like

but that is not the solution, because I need to type thename of the property, and because I may match many other objects with the same string (comments, other controls with the same property, etc.)

I'd like a faster way to get to where I need. For instance the contetual menu could offer Find/specific property according to where the right-click was.

I've wanted this functionality many times as well. Kudos.

 

For now, the workaround I use is the Find Property or Method VI Analyzer test. Note that you do not need to have the VI Analyzer Toolkit installed to use this test.
