- Topic Center search
What it does for you: Helps you find something inside a topic. Searches just the items in the present Topic Center;
Searches for: A phrase or string that you provide (no keywords, no wildcards);
Where it looks: In the names of all topics and occurrences appearing anywhere in the Topic Center (and in the names of files linked to these occurrences).
How to start it: While viewing the Topic Center, click the Local Search button in the toolbar or press Ctrl+S.
This type of search helps you to locate an occurrence or loosely associated topic (see Tunneling through to more ideas) when in a Topic Center.
Much as with a Local search, click on the Topic Center search button.... ....in the toolbar, or press Ctrl+S, and the Topic Center search text box will drop down from the toolbar:-
'Hits' will be indicated with yellow dots in the occurrence list or loosely-associated topics list.
