Using Desktop Search

Optimal Desktop Search will let you search your Bookmarks and RSS headlines stored in Optimal Desktop.

You can activate search windows from the Toolbar (Magnifier icon), Keyboard Shortcut (Alt + S) and the context menu of the Page Tab. The Search window will open in a Page Tab.

The Search command activates the Page Tabs (even if the Page Tabs are turned off) and opens a new page tab next to the current Page tab.

To modify your search settings access "Search Manager" from the Tools > Desktop Manager > Search Manager menu.

Note: You can activate multiple search windows simultaneously
