Searching for specific maps and modules

If you are working with large numbers of maps and modules, you might have to
locate a specific map or module or a group of maps or modules that share a
common characteristic.

The search engine enables you to perform searches using either free-form text or
predefined search options. An advanced search feature enables you to search for
maps and modules based on usage. For example, an advanced search can produce
results that identify modules used by a specific map, all maps that use a specific
module, or all modules that are not used by any map. In addition, you can
customize the search so that it searches an entire repository or specific folders
within a repository.

To perform a basic search for a map or module, do the following:
1.

From the Main window menu bar, click Tools and then click Search....

2.

In the Objects to search for field, place a check mark in the check box for the
type of map or module for which you want to search.

3.

In the Text to search for field, type a string that is common to all modules you
want to locate. This step is optional and is typically used to narrow down
search results.

Note:

The search function supports the use of wildcard characters. The
supported wildcard characters are the percent character (%) and the
underscore (_).

4.

In the Look in field, use the drop-down menu to specify whether you want to
search the entire repository or if you want to search within a specific folder
contained in the repository.

5.

Click the Search now button. The search results are displayed in the right-side
of the search window.

For more advanced searches, click Search Options >> to display a list of search
criteria and advanced search options. Use this list to help specify certain map or
module characteristics that you want to include in your search. For example, the
State search criteria enables you to search for only those maps or modules that
have been promoted to the gold state.

For detailed information about using the search engine and performing advanced
searches, see the ImageUltra Builder help system.
