The result of a search process is shown in a list in the bottom pane of the Workbench. Use this list to further explore the found objects.
Exploring the search result
About the buttons of the search result
The buttons on the top right of the Search pane allow you to perform the following operations.
The Search pane
• | With the ‘Refresh’ button on the search result you can re-execute the last search. The folder or the topic that was the object of that search will be automatically reselected and the Search window will popup. The search options chosen before are preselected. You just have to click 'Start'. |
• | With the ‘Print’ you can print the overview list. The content however is not included in the print. |
• | The ‘History’ button on the search result pane allows you to reshow previous search lists (the 5 last search operations are kept in the history queue). |
• | With the ‘Remove’ button you can clear a list from the history. |
• | With the ‘Search’ button you can launch a new search on the object currently selected in the tree. The difference with the 'Refresh' is that you will have to set all the options and after the search operation, a new item will be added to the 'History' list. |
To locate a found object you can popup an item’s menu and select ‘Go to’ or double click on an item in the list.
The found object will be located and opened in the Workbench. In case the word was found in a topic’s text body then the text editor’s ‘Find & replace’ window will be opened and the cursor is positioned on the word you have searched for.
Exploring a found object
From here on you can go to the next occurrence of the searched word in the topic by clicking on the 'Find' button.
In case the word was (only) found in a description then the word is preselected in the object’s description field on the top right corner of the Workbench.
