<h1>Quick Search View</h1>
<p>The Quick Search view allows users to perform searches for information
that is contained <i>inside</i> artifacts in a selected branch.
</p>
<img src="quickSearchView.png" alt="quick search view"/>
<p>To find all artifacts that contain a particular set of keywords:</p>
<ol>
<li>Select <a class="command-link" href='javascript:executeCommand("org.eclipse.ui.views.showView(org.eclipse.ui.views.showView.viewId=org.eclipse.osee.framework.ui.skynet.QuickSearchView)")'>
<img src="artifact_search.gif" alt="search icon" border="0" />
<b>Window &gt; Show View &gt; Other... &gt; OSEE &gt; Quick Search</b></a>, to open the view.
</li>
<li><p>Type your search string in the <b>Enter Search String</b> combo box, or use the
pull-down list to select a previously entered search expression. <br/> Special characters such as (<b><code>' '</code>,
<code>!</code>, <code>"</code>, <code>#</code>, <code>$</code>,
<code>%</code>, <code>(</code>, <code>)</code>, <code>*</code>, <code>+</code>,
<code>,</code>, <code>-</code>, <code>.</code>, <code>/</code>, <code>:</code>,
<code>;</code>, <code>&lt;</code>, <code>&gt;</code>, <code>?</code>, <code>@</code>,
<code>[</code>, <code>\</code>, <code>]</code>, <code>^</code>, <code>{</code>,
<code>|</code>, <code>}</code>, <code>~</code>, <code>_</code></b>) are assumed to be word separators unless <i>By Id</i> option is selected.
When <i>By Id</i> option is selected, (<b><code>,</code> and <code>' '</code></b>) are treated as separators.</p>
<p>For example:
<ul>
<li>When <i>By Id</i> is not selected, <b><code>hello.world</code></b> will be translated to <b><code>hello</code></b> and <b><code>world</code></b>. The search will match attributes with <b><code>hello</code></b> and <b><code>world</code></b> keywords.</li>
<li>When <i>By Id</i> is selected, (<b><code>A+ABG7jFm+0BKaVZIxfqOQ,AFABG7jFm+0BKaVZIxfqOQ PX1FH</code></b>) will be interpreted as 2 GUID(s) and 1 HRID. The search will match artifacts containing <b><code>A+ABG7jFm+0BKaVZIxfqOQ</code></b> and <b><code>AFABG7jFm+0BKaVZIxfqOQ</code></b> as its GUID or <b><code>PX1FH</code></b> as its HRID.</li>
</ul>
</p>
</li>
<li>Finish entering your search options, (for example, to scope
the search to include deleted artifacts, check the include deleted option),
and click <b>Search</b> or press <b>Enter</b> from the combo box to execute the search.
</li>
<li>The Search view displays the results of your search. Right-click on any item in
the Search view to open a pop-up menu that allows you perform various operations
on the artifacts such as copy search results to the clipboard or reveal a
selected artifact in Artifact Explorer. To open one of the listed artifacts,
double-click it or select <b>Open</b> from its pop-up menu.
</li>
</ol>
