Description:
Searching a model for text using any of the available search/find options results in a "Search" box appearing in the top right of the model diagram page.  

This search box input has a two character limit.  This is obviously not sufficient or specific enough to find objects in a model with more than 10 tables.

Searching the web for a work-around results in no useful information.

Searching the bug reports for this function results in several hits.  They are closed without apparent resolution other than stating the bug was closed/fixed ao. v 5.2.38.

This is not the case judging by my experience using latest version.

How to repeat:
Create an ER diagram and try to find a table using the search box provided, edit->find... or f3.

Suggested fix:
Allow the search input box to accept more than two (2) characters.
