Conditions from the shortcut menu.
9. The shortcut menu that appears when right-clicking the list box also contains several Ignore
Category ... and Ignore Property ... options. See User Name and Internal Name for details on what
these mean.
10. Select the Match Case check box if you want the find to respect the upper and lower case letters in
strings. You can also define case sensitivity at the condition level by selecting the condition,
right-clicking the list box and choosing Ignore String Value Case from the shortcut menu. This will
then ignore that condition's case when making comparisons. The Match Case check box should gray
out, showing that some conditions are case sensitive and other are not.
11. Select the Prune Below Result check box if you want to stop searching a branch of the selection
tree as soon as an item that matches the find specification is found.
12. From the Search drop-down list, select the type of search you want to perform.
• Default searches all items selected in the selection tree, along with the paths below these itesm,
for matches with the search.
• Below Selected Paths only searches below the items selected in the selection tree for matches
with the search.
• Selected Paths Only only searches within the items selected in the selection tree for matches
with the search.
13. Click Find First for the first item in the selection tree to match any of the find specification, Find Next
to find the next item in the tree, and Find All to find all items matching the specification.
14. You can click Abort Search at any time during a lengthy search to cancel the search.
15. Any items found will be selected in the selection tree and main navigation window.
Note:
A small "star" will appear next to any condition that does not have the default settings, such as if
you negate the condition or select one of the Ignore... items on the shortcut menu.
Find Item Example
Let's say, you have set up four conditions in the search called C1, C2, C3 and C4. If you want to search
for (C1 AND C2) OR (C3 AND NOT C4), then you would select condition 3 and choose Or Condition
from the shortcut menu, and then select condition 4 and choose Negate Condition from the shortcut
menu. So all conditions following the OR are ANDed together and this group of conditions is ORed with
the first group of conditions, which are also ANDed together. In other words, the precedence is NOT, then
AND, then OR.
Quick Find
As well as the more comprehensive and powerful Find Item feature (see “ Finding Items ”), NavisWorks
also offers a simpler and quicker Quick Find. This simply searches for a string (case insensitive) in all
property names and values attached to items in the scene.
