Search menu¶

The search menu allows searching elements, folios or conductors which have a text field or property with an specific value. The search menu allows finding automatically an element with a desired label, list the folios from an specific author, etc.

QElectrotech provides a basic and simple search menu composed by a text box which allows writing the desired string which should be found and some buttons for closing the menu, actualizing the search and going to next and previous coincidence.
