More than a regular search bar , the power search bar is located in the center of your screen, just above the working space of the editor.
This feature will allow you to perform different types of searches:
Simple search: look up in your document for some words/text strings, like in the search and replace tool.
Regular search: refine your simple search by giving some more restrictions (case specific, phrase match, wildcards or regular expressions).
Advanced search: narrow down your results by using and combining search operators. These are all the data categories that you can find in the CAT tool. Some of them are contained in the statitstics view, but many others come from the different widgets and smart features available in the system.
Using search operators to filter segments
Reminder
It is also possible to select more than one element of each filter category and also combine filters. The system will also detect which are the fields that you use the most and push them to the top of the list, so that you can save time each time you access the search feature.
