Search
DW Spectrum provides fast, powerful and flexible search engine that enables users to quickly locate the
desired items on demand. To perform search, click on the Search tab in Resource Tree next to Resources.
IMPORTANT: Search results will appear on
Scene immediately. If the search comes back with
a high number of found items, only the first 24 will
be displayed for x86 architecture and 64 results -
for x64 architecture. Search results are
automatically added to the current scene.
Type any three consecutive characters from a resource name, MAC or IP into the box to activate search.
Search results are displayed as follows:
To refine search, use the following tips:
Specify the resource type: Any Type, Video Files, Image Files or Live Cameras.
Use special symbols to combine several search criteria:
“+” – to add a new criteria to the search. Example, “out” + “100” will pull in all files containing
“out” or “100” in file description.
“\” – to avoid files containing certain characters. Example, “out \hdtv” will pull in all files
containing “out”, but no “hdtv”.
All results will disappear from the scene once all characters are removed from the search box.
