Search Features for All Systems
All systems provide the following search capa-
bility:
• Search by item Name, Kind, and Date Modi-
fied.
• Results of a search are displayed in the Items
List, where they can immediately be selected
for auditioning, copying, and other opera-
tions. In the Workspace browser, a separate
“Search Results” pane displays found items.
• Utilize search syntax modifiers, such as OR,
wildcard characters, and greater than/less
than. See “Search Modifiers” on page 185.
• Search in Quick or Advanced Search mode.
Quick mode assumes (fills in) wildcard charac-
ters for faster data entry while searching. Ad-
vanced Search mode lets you specify wildcard
characters for more precise searching. See
“Search Modes” on page 186 for more infor-
mation.
