Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/68.0.3440.75 Safari/537.36 Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Mistakenly add the word "fiddlestiks" to your custom dictionary. 2. Try to find where to go to remove the word. 3. Click Menu > Settings. 4. Type "dictionary" in the settings search box. 5. No results. 6. Search the web and eventually discover that it's here: chrome://settings/editDictionary 7. Press Ctrl+F and type fiddlestiks to find the word so you can click the X next to it (important if you have lots of custom words). What is the expected behavior? Searching for "dictionary" would bring you to the custom dictionary and searching for "fiddlestiks" would bring you to fiddlestiks. What went wrong? The custom dictionary did not show up in the search results. Then, once you find the custom dictionary, the settings page overrides the "search within page" feature of a typical Ctrl+F, so it searches all settings rather than searching within the custom dictionary. Did this work before? N/A Chrome version: 68.0.3440.75 Channel: stable OS Version: 10.0 Flash Version: A workaround is to click outside the "Search settings" box before pressing Ctrl+F. In that case, the settings page does not override Ctrl+F and you can search within the page. This behavior of conditionally overriding Ctrl+F is confusing. The general search experience with the new settings design feels clumsy.

Thanks for filing the issue...! Tested the issue on reported chrome version 68.0.3440.75 using Windows 10. Attaching screen-cast for reference. Steps: --------- 1. Launched reported chrome 2. Navigated to some Editor and pasted "fiddlestiks" >> Right clicked on it and added to dictionary 3. Navigated to chrome://settings>> Advanced >> Spell Check As we are able see the Added word and able to remove the word as per screen-cast. NOTE: In chrome there is no Dictionary you can find "Spell Check", Can you please let us know if you want to rise a feature request for "Dictionary". @Reporter: Could you please review the attached screen-cast and confirm if anything being missed here. Thanks..!

The screencast does not capture this issue. The screencast started with a blank account with new words in the custom dictionary. When a word was added, the screencast user found it manually by sight, which was easy because there were no other words to look through. To create a realistic screencast for this issue, start with an account that has about 200 words in the custom dictionary - enough so that it's not easy to find a given word quickly by sight. That will lead you to what this issue is really about: search. The screencast should attempt to use Ctrl+F, per the issue's description.
