Table Of Contents
The left pane contains the Find Selection Tree with several tabs at the
bottom, and enables you to select the level of item to start searching at; this
can be a file, a layer, an instance, a selection set, and so on.
The tabs are the same as on the Selection Tree window:
Standard. Displays the default tree hierarchy, including all instancing.
Compact. Displays a simplified version of the tree hierarchy.
Properties. Displays the hierarchy based on the items properties.
Sets. Displays a list of selection and search sets. If no selection and search
sets have been created, this tab is not shown.
NOTE The list of the items on the Sets tab is exactly the same as the list on
the Sets window.
The right pane enables you to add the search statements (or conditions). And
the buttons enable you to find the qualifying items in your scene.
Defining Search Statements
A search statement contains a property (a combination of category name and
property name), a condition operator, and a value to be tested against the
selected property. For example, you can search for Material that
ContainsChrome.
By default, all items that match your statement criteria are found (for example,
all objects that use chrome material). You can also negate a statement, in
which case, all items that do not match your statement criteria are found
instead (for example, all objects that do not use chrome material).
