Search Manager
The Search Manager application allows you to search for specific models in the
SPECTRUM database. You can either search for models using predefined criteria or
create your own customized searches. Search Manager also provides access to
attributes in the SPECTRUM database, allowing you to change attribute settings on
individual models or globally for all models of a type.
Known Search Manager Anomalies in
SPECTRUM 6.5
Problem 1: After saving and adding searches to the Predefined list and
then choosing Erase User Preferences (or Group Preferences as well) under
the Options menu, all of the saved searches are cleared and lost when you
launch Search Manager again.
Solution: Avoid using the Erase User Preferences (or Group Preferences)
option. This problem will be addressed in a future release of SPECTRUM.
Problem 2: On the Solaris platform, the Search Editor does not pop to the
foreground when opened through a Search Manager Main window
selection and remains open and hidden behind other open windows.
Solution: This is a behavioral problem with the Solaris Common Desktop
Environment (CDE) and can be corrected by deselecting the “Raise window
when made active” option in the Style Manager-Window popup dialog.
