Searching the Library
You can search the library for items. The search helps find an item when you only know some information about it. For example, you know that an image's name includes Ektron but don't know the exact name or its folder.
To search the library, click the binoculars button from the library Workarea (illustrated below).
When you do, a search screen appears with several fields that let you narrow your search. The fields are described below.
Note
Some search field check boxes are circles while others are squares. If the box is a circle, you can only choose one option. If it is a square, you can select as many as you want. Only library assets that satisfy all search criteria appear on the Search found screen.
