Navigate using a keyword search The search bar at the top left provides full-text keyword search on properties of nodes on the project canvas. Nodes with matching property values are highlighted as you enter search terms. You can then click items on the list to select and center the graph on the selected data. To navigate using keyword search of property values: If your project is connected to a database, click the icon in the search bar and choose to search the data already on the canvas (rather than query the database). Enter a full or partial search term. For example, to find a Character node with the name property value of Grey Wind, you can simply enter “win”. As you enter the term, nodes with property values matching the search term are selected. A list of results by category and node appears below the search bar. The example search returned two Character nodes, one of which has the name property value we want. In a graph search partial text is entered without asterisks. Any space between search terms is recognized as OR logic. AND logic is not recognized. For more details, you can mouse over a list item for an information window. Click anywhere on an item to select the node and center it in the project space. Click the X in the search bar to clear a search. Navigate using a Table In a table of the data for any category or relationship, you can click a table row to select a node or edge and center it on the canvas. To navigate to a node or edge from a table: Select data in the graph using any method, or double-click in an empty area to de-select all data. Open the Table panel, click the Category or Relationship tab, and a category or relationship label to display a table of the nodes or edges. To limit a table to nodes or edges with property values of interest, use the Table panel’s Search bar. Click a table row for a single node (or edge). The graph centers on the node (or edge), highlighting but not selecting it. You can select the node or edge on the canvas with left mouse click, or if the search has returned the one item of interest, click the Select All button below the table to select it.
