Open/Find Resource View

The Open/Find Resource view is designed to offer advanced search capabilities either by using a simple text search or by using the Apache Lucene - Query Parser Syntax. By default, the view is presented in the left side of the Oxygen XML layout, next to the Project view or DITA Maps Manager.

You can use this view to find a file in the current Oxygen XML project or in one of the DITA maps opened in the DITA Maps Manager view by typing only a few letters of the file name of a document or a fragment of the content you are searching for. The Open/Find Resource view also supports searching in document edits (comments, tracked change insertions/deletions, and highlighted content) by selecting the In reviews option.

The Open/Find Resource view offers the following options:
  • Settings - Drop-down menu that includes the following settings for the view:
    • Show description - Presents the search results in a more compact form, displaying only the title and the location of the resources.
