The search tab allows a convenient way to search the training material. The search algorithm is a full substring search, which means that the search results will match any word which contains the search criteria. Search results within each topic are highlighted with a blue background. Consider searching for "to", this will match to, into, topic, or in other words, just about anything in the training course. The search algorithm uses OR-ing logic, that is, each word in the search field is OR'ed with the previous word.
By enclosing the search words inside double quotes, you can tell the search engine to look for the exact phrase. For example, searching for the two words user defined without quotes returns 40 topics where either user or defined is found. When user defined is enclosed in double quotes, the search engine finds only three topics.
Text which you are expected to recognize visually, such as a file name in a file selection dialog or a button name is shown in bold text:
