By entering one or more keywords into the search box in the upper left corner, the software searches for all objects, which
include the specified keyword in their names or other primary properties. The results are displayed in the left area instead
of the navigation menu, which is minimized for this purpose:
The results are shown together with the following information:
NAME
Name of the object inside the software’s database
TYPE
Object-type; shown directly under the name of the object
PRIMARY PROPERTY
If available, on the right side the primary property of an object is shown (for example: the
group address of a KNX object)
By setting a search filter, only relevant object types are displayed in the search result. Search filters can be activated by
clicking on the corresponding description in the properties of an object. If, for example, a search filter for KNX group
addresses is active, only objects of type "KNX group address" matching the specified search word are displayed in the
search results. By clicking on the FILTER-icon to the right of the search box, such a search filter can be disabled.
A result entry will be colored green if it is clicked; as within the navigation menu, there will appear some action buttons in
the bottom toolbar, if the selected object allows editing. In this case, the 3 points on the right side of the selected entry
will be visible, enabling a quicker access to the property window.
It is possible to change the objects name directly in the search engine with a simple double click on the whished item in
the list of search results.
This way the search engine can be used to do fast customizations.
The search function also supports the
multiple selection
of objects by holding the CTRL key of your keyboard while
selecting the desired objects with the mouse. The selected objects will all be colored green:
