Using the Find box

!! What is the Find box?

  In most of your resources you can open a Find box. The Find box is a small bar which drops down just below that resource's toolbar. \\  {{$ media:FindBox1a.png }} \\

 In the /Find box/, type a word and Logos will search for that word in your resource, starting where-ever you are in the resource and going forward. If no occurrence of your word (or partial word) is found you may notice that the box turns red. This quickly helps you determine if your word is present. \\ Once your word is found you can use the Up/Down arrows to move to the previous or next occurrence of your word. It is similar to /Find/ in your browser or other software tools.

  The Find box is not meant to replace the Search tool. It's best purpose is to help you locate words which might be close to where are reading in the resource. And it can be used to find punctuation, unlike the Search tool.

  The Find box can be used in your Notes and Clippings.
