Get search results as you type in



This function is activated by clicking the green 'lightning bolt' icon, which, in turn, enables two new buttons: S (source language) and T (target language). Pressing either button will select the respective language, in context.

This button works as a 'toggle' button, that is, it enables or disables other controls, by turning them On or Off.

The search starts when you have typed at leas four (4) characters. It is advisable not to type too fast or the application may stall. Normally, however, for moderate size Termbases the application works fast. 

TIP: you can also copy and paste specific terms, instead of typing, to avoid having to "wait for" the results.


In a similar fashion to using a traditional web search engine you will get instant results and the corresponding translations depending on the language pair selected.

When you turn off this Instant Search feature, the S and T buttons will cease to be available, you can then immediately run an Extended search by just clicking on the [GO] button. You then will have two panes with additional results at the same time.

Important: The instant search feature searches through at the term level only. 
In some rare cases while using this feature, text may be truncated when there are apostrophes and/or commas.


Once you make a selection in the results box, you can connect to MultiTerm Desktop by clicking on the MultiTerm green logo.
