Finder is used to locate and open topics. Finder locates beside the Topics tab as shown above.
Finder is a simple free text search. Finder tries to locate given search word in topics. You can search with any topic element or element combination. Search result appears below the search field. Double clicking a topic in the search result opens the topic into the topic panel. Right clicking a topic opens context menu with a large number of topic tools.
Search words used in Finder can contain Java specific regular expression characters such as dot. Finder doesn't restrict search word lenght. As an extreme example you could start search with a single dot as the search word resulting every topic in Wandora. Viewing very large result sets is time consuming and may cause OutOfMemoryExceptions in Wandora.
