Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Search for | Example | Results |
---|---|---|
A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |
Search for | Operator | Example |
---|---|---|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
Either word in a topic |
|
|
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

Wizard order of execution
When a wizard is run, it executes in the order the tabs are displayed in the wizard tool interface (Wizard Info, File Selection, Usage, and so on.)
On the Usage tab, the developer determines whether the wizard panel is displayed to the end user. If the panel is displayed, the order of execution then depends on which button the end user clicks, Next, Previous, Cancel, or Finish.
If the end user clicks the Previous button, the previous wizard panel is displayed, or some other panel as set by the developer using the Previous Wizard tab in the wizard tool.
The Finish button is intended to be used at the end of the workflow. If the user clicks it in the middle of the workflow, the wizard will proceed through the rest of the sequential wizard panels without prompting the user for further input.
The Comments tab is used for internal development comments, and has no effect on the wizard processing flow.
Within the File Selection tab, the Initial Expressions and Javascript evaluate after the Select $L.file by tab. The means that you cannot populate a query variable in Initial Expressions and then use it in "Select $L.file by."
