In line searching

When I do an inline search for "Epaphroditos" in Flavius Josephus: Translation and Commentary, Volume 3 Judean Antiquities Books 1-4 it gives me 2 results.

However, is there a way for me to find where these are other than scrolling page by page? This could take much time. What if an inline search finds 100 or 200 times a search word is found. That simply wouldn't do any good.

I can us the search icon in the upper left of my pane and that actually displays where the word is found. Unless I'm not getting what the inline search function is for I assumed it was a slim line engine for the particular resource one is reading.

I may have to view the video on inline search again. But in the meantime, is there a way to see where words are found in a search using inline search?

No. There is no way to navigate by search result currently. It makes the tool pretty cumbersome.

This is what displays.

I might be misunderstanding the OP's question, but in the locator bar would changing the drop down menu from the default "article" to "search result" and then using the arrows accomplish the same thing or no?

You are right. I forgot to toggle the Locator Bar on. Maybe Milkman did, too.

This resource has the drop article and arrows, but I just noticed that my other resource does not.

I thought I read somewhere that the locator bar was resource specific. Does anything change if you type control+shift+L ?

Perfect! So I have search results displayed and use the arrows to find my results.

The control+shift+L worked. Didn't know about that one.

Thanks again.

You can also select it from the resource menu.

One thing to add to this thread that may be of interest to the people involved: inline search contextualization (i.e. displayed content around the search hit).

When doing an inline search there are various types of search result contextualization and they depend on the features of the resource being searched. They differ contexts are:

1) Article (size of an article varies by resource, if no options are shown for contextualization, this is likely the only option supported because it is an option that all resources support).

2) Paragraph (supported in newly rebuilt resources, i.e. those in the recent large download)

3) Sentence (supported in newly rebuilt resources, see paragraph)

4) Verse (supported for all versified bibles)

5) Pericope (supported for some bibles, not all)
