You can search for parts
among the EGL projects in your workspace.
This

your project for a text match to a string. For a textual search of
your project,
click .

these steps:
- From the main menu, click . The Search window opens
to the EGL Search tab.
If
you do not see , click and switch to the EGL
Search tab.
- Type the criteria for the search
in the Search string field.
You can use the following wildcard symbols in your search:
- A
question mark (?) represents any one character
- An asterisk
(*) represents a series of any characters of any length
For
example, type my?Part to locate parts named "my1Part"
and "my2Part", but not "my10Part". Type my*Part to
locate
parts named "my1Part", "my2Part", and "my10Part".
