Can not find text in Multicolumn Listbox in LabView 8.20

Problem is that if you do a Control-F to find a specific text, for a multicolumn listbox it doesn't tell where it is specifically. Only that it is located somewhere in the listbox.  It is working properly if you have embedded text in a String control/indicator, or in your diagram.
 
In Labview 6.1, it goes directly to your text location ( Do a Control-G), but in LabView 8.20, it doesn't go there. 
 
I submitted a example VI, compiled in Labview 6.1. 
 
Seems like this is a bug in Labview 8.20 for the Find Text feature (Control-F).  I would like to know if there is a workaround.  I have built a large VI that puts the text into a multicolumn listbox, and the search feature in labview is useful to know where things are.

Yes, I'll mention that this change in behavior is more specifically between 8.0 and 8.20.  I'll post here when I have more info.

This was reported to R&D (446HO4U4) for further investigation.  Thanks for the feedback!
