Yes, "Find" (Ctrl-F on Windows and UN*Xes not named "macOS", Command+F on macOS) can search based on:

	a pattern-matching expression ("Find" calls it a "Display Filter");

	a hex value;

	a string;

	a regular expression.

The latter three match on raw frame contents; the former is the same as display filters, read filters, coloring rule expressions, etc..
