You know, it'd be really nice if that was documented in the included Help file,
since I can't find that function anywhere in the pull-down menus. Also, it's
the part tree window, not the part preview window. Right-clicking that just
switches between large view and small view. I think I found that by accident,
too, and I don't remember ever right-clicking on the part tree window.
Anyways, this still isn't quite what I would have hoped for. I tried searching
for "2 x 2" and it came up as an Invalid Search String. I then tried "2x2" and
it doesn't return any results at all. If I'm looking for a 2x2 item, I really
don't want to wade through everything that'll match a search for just "2".

| (...) I assume it uses the same format as the tree grouping rules, which again are undocumented in the help files, but are helpfully detailed in: (URL) dont appear (as you have noticed) to accept spaces. (20 years ago, 23-Oct-04, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
