To find text in the displayed task, select Edit ▸ Find in Task… from the main menu.
In the Tasks view, you can quickly search for tasks either by summary or by category.
Searching by summary:
Click the search icon 
to expand the drop-down list.
Select the search condition from the list.
Enter the text you want to search for and press Enter.
Evolution displays the search results.
Searching by category:
Click the Show drop-down list.
Select the category from the list.
Evolution displays the search results.
If you want to set several search conditions, you should use an Advanced search, which is described below.
Select the Search ▸ Advanced Search menu to open the dialog box.
Click Add Condition to add any number of rules.
Select the condition from the dropdown list, and then type a search entry in the field.
Click OK to get the search results displayed.
To clear your search view and get back to the default view, click the Clear icon in the search string field, or choose Search ▸ Clear from the menubar. You can also press Shift+Ctrl+Q to clear the search.
If you search for something rather often, you will prefer not to type it many times. In this case you can use saved searches.
To save your search results, either click Save instead of OK in the Search dialog, or in case the search results are already displayed, select Search ▸ Save Search. From now on this search will be directly available from the Search menu.
Select Search ▸ Edit Saved Searches from the menu bar to open the window.
Click the Edit button to open the Edit Rule window.
Edit the title or search conditions from the dialog box.
Click OK.
