Search is the fastest way to find documents in a large project. The search bar lives in the file explorer header. In the full file view, click the Search icon to expand the field; in the takeoff and page sidebars it is always visible.

Type a term and the file explorer filters everything in the project at once. A match against any of these surfaces the item:

Matching is case-insensitive and looks for your term anywhere in the text, so elec finds both "Electrical" and an "E-Series" sheet. Sheet codes come from automatic page analysis, so you can jump straight to a drawing by its number without remembering its full name.

While you search, the breadcrumb changes to All Files followed by a count, such as "12 results for ...". The results below combine folders, files, pages, and documents that match.

To leave search and return to the full file list, click All Files in the breadcrumb. This clears the term and restores your normal folder view.

Exayard remembers terms you use so you can run them again with one click. About a second after you stop typing, the current term is saved automatically. Saved terms appear as chips below the search bar whenever the field is empty.

Click any chip to run that search again. To forget a term, click the X on its chip. Exayard keeps your ten most recent searches; older terms drop off as you add new ones. Recent searches are stored in your browser, so they stay with you across page reloads but are not shared with teammates.

Searching by sheet code only works when a page has one. Keep sheet numbers and page names accurate so you can always find a drawing by its code. You can edit a page's name and sheet number any time from its ... menu — see File operations.
