Search tab

Enter the search terms that are contained within the item you want, and then click on the Search button.

There are two sets of results that contain your search terms. Each list will be ranked based on the degree of match between your search terms and the object's contents.

  • The upper list contains matching documents, parts and change forms saved in the database.
  • The lower list shows matching files stored in the file library.

If you have the appropriate permissions, any item within the results can be opened or used as the source for a drag-and-drop onto an item's Markup tab or a change form's Affected tab.

Refer to the How to use the Item Explorer > Searching for items topic for a detailed explanation of how to define and run searches.

If your search is too broad, not all possible items will be displayed. You should narrow your search by adding more terms, or by including operators such as AND. See the How to use the Item Explorer > Search syntax reference topic for more information on constructing searches.
