Search only in current node and it's subnodes

[xidiot]

I think there's no way at the moment to search only only in current node and it's subnodes. This is super useful for limiting the search to a particular "topic", e.g.

Another user, here. Experimenting.
I have found by experimenting several external methods of searching sub-nodes.
If you are using *.ctd format it is XML format. You can use XML searching.
Here for example is one library for use in Python script (which could in fact be in a CodeBox within CherryTree).
https://docs.python.org/3/library/xml.etree.elementtree.html
You might also open your *.ctd file in a free XML editor XMLCopyEditor and search therein. You can also search all *.ctd docs in your desktop. Query: [ext:ctd] using Recoll. So think "out of the box" and "toolchain". Even ripgrep-all can be used, again within a CodeBox.
The one obstacle is easily grabbing the target CT filepath. You see this in toolbar but currently you have to eyeball, copy and paste as a variable. However Recoll gives file directory and file path and can be used in Python scripting.
