Use a search function

You can search for an opening in the library based on a code or description text.

• Search All Fields

  The search result will show those openings that contain the characters specified in the description. The search is case sensitive. The description is defined in the library.

• Search Code

  The search result will show those openings whose label contains the exact same character string.

You can use wildcard characters, such as an asterisk (*) and question mark (?) in the search field. The question mark stands for a single character, and the asterisk stands for any combination of characters.
