If you are building complex wizards with multiple pages and fields, it will at some point become necessary to quickly navigate to specific fields, to make updates to them. In such case the Search function becomes very useful. For example, you may search for a mention of a meta field name, and all places within the wizard that reference that field will be shown, including any scripts or conditions that are based on the value of that field. In the same way, you may search for a CSS style name and find all fields that use this style, as well as the style definition itself.

Step 1: 

A Search box is located in the top-right corner of the Docupace Start editor window.


Docupace Start window – Search box

In case there are many items in your wizard, you can refine the search results by turning on search switches.

The following switches are available:

  • F - Search in files (such as On load Action scripts or Global CSS)
  • PV - Search in property values
  • PV - Search in property names
  • PgN - Search in page names
  • Aa - Match case
  • Ab - Match whole words
  • .* - Use Regular Expressions



Search box switches

To use the Search box, enter the words that you are looking for into the box. The list of matching objects will be shown below, as you type. The list entries show first the page name, where the word is found, then the field label and its unique ID, and then the part of the code with the word highlighted.

Click on the object in the Search results list and you will be navigated to the specific object on the page, where it is located.
