In Scheer PASDesigner you have different options to search for content. On this page we explain all available search options.
Searching the Explorer Tab

On top of the explorer tree you can find a search box. Select the part of the explorer tree (namespace, folder or service) you want to search, and enter a search term.
Once you have selected content in the tree, you can enter your search term.
Use iconto reset the search box.
When you start entering your search terms, the hit list will be displayed on the right side. The search term is highlighted within the hit list.
The list is divided into the following sections:

The search results are links.
Double-click on a link to open the corresponding model or form in the background.
The search is only applied to the selected element and its content. Contents within other elements are not considered.
If you are not sure where the searched item is located, apply the search to the whole namespace.
However, you can change the search root for the search criteria entered by switching to another element. The search results are adapted.
Quick Access to Services
Open Recent Services to get quick access to the recently used services.
The list shows the last ten opened services.
Click a service in the list to open it in the background.
Searching the Editors
If you open a model, several panels are displayed. The Designer panels can be displayed on the left and right side of the panes and support the user during modeling. One of them is the Search panel.
The Search panel helps you to find elements on the panes.
The panel is available in the following editors:
BPMN Editor
Execution Editor

The search panel is hidden by default. If you use the panel preset, you can find the icon to display the search panel in the right upper corner of the diagram pane.
Click on the icon to display the search panel in the sidebar.
To return to the panel preset, go to the user preferences and use the button Reset Panels.
