Hello Robert,

This feature is not supported out of the box and we have rpeviously logged a feature request. You can check it in the link below.

Map: Implement OpenStreetMap search provider


You can implement such kind of search via the Nominatim's API described in the following article:

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Nominatim

You build Web Request via URI and the UIR contains params like the search string you type and etc. Then you get a response in JSON / XML / Html format and deserialize it.
