Search as you type

Post by dmiranda12 »

Hi, I have been using everything for a long while. In the past, I was able to search as I typed. Searching for Toledo, for instance, it will show all words with t, with to, with tol, with tole, and so on so forth. For some reason for the last two versions I can only search for whole worlds in the index (toledo, not to, not tol, not tole).

I have looked at the sttings, but cannot figure out how to solve this issue. Any ideas? Thanks!

First guess: Match Whole Word is enabled (under the Search menu entry)

Quick tip: If this and similar settings are set, they will be shown in the status bar. Double-clicking it will revert the setting back to 'normal'

That was it, thank you! I had forgotten about the settings there.
