Content search | Activates a separate input field to the right of the search field, which can be used to search for file contents. You can find more information on searching for file content in the chapter ‘Search’. Note Searching for file contents can be very slow because the entire contents of a file must be analyzed. It is therefore strongly recommended to combine the file content search with other search criteria in order to speed up the search!
Check boxes | Displays checkboxes next to each item in the result list. Select this option to make it easier to select multiple items.
Preview pane | Activates the file preview next to the result list. If a file is selected in the result list, its content is displayed here.
