TL;DR: Add a search bar to the production statistics screen so we can look for specific items easily without scrolling through the list.

As it stands now, if I'm looking for a certain item, especially one that gets produced in lower quantities (say, batteries), I have to scroll down the list and look for the icon. There are enough different items that this can take quite a bit of time. In vanilla it's already difficult, but using the production screen well in a modded game is much worse, as I have to manually search through hundreds of items to find the one I want. A simple search bar would let you quickly look for a specific item, which would be really helpful.

I support this idea.

Currently I can search in the Logistics Network screen to see how much science I have in storage, but I cannot search in the Production screen to see how much is being produced.

Everything else has a search button (crafting, logistics, blueprints etc.) so why not production?

Currently in a Bobs mods game, was just about to request this myself ... It would be extremely appreciated

Mentioned this a couple of days ago on the subreddit too. This would be a really noticeable QOL improvement while being relatively light on dev effort.

When expanding my factory over 1k SPM and often checking the production statistics after building new factories, it sometimes was quite a hassle to find what I'm looking for. Switching to the 1min or 10m setting doesnt do the job, since I want to know what the immediate production rate is. In addition, even within the 10min setting, some items jump around pretty fast.
So what I think could be helpful is a search via Strg+F + a possible option to "freeze" the current statistics.
