Yate displays its help in a browser. If you want to search across all the application's help files, you can use the Help menu's Search Yate Help... item.
This topic describes how to use the displayed search help panel.
Bookmarks are displayed in the panel on the left and topics are displayed in the panel at the right. You can resize the panels by dragging the separator between them.
The font size can be changed by ⌘+ and ⌘-.
You can specify that the entered search pattern is to be considered Case Insensitive and that matches are to be performed as Contains, Starts With or Word Boundaries. Note that the specified pattern is always placed in the clipboard after specifying a search.
The pin icon at the top left can be used to force the panel to always be on top of other windows.
For a list of all help topics specify * as the search pattern.
When a help topic is located which contains at least one match for the pattern, its title will be displayed in the Topics table on the right of the panel.
Once a help page has been opened in a browser, you can use its native find functionality to look for the pattern. If the Position option is set, Yate will automatically issue the find command. The positioning of the find match in a browser might not exactly represent the first match made in Yate. The search box in most browsers is always case insensitive. Safari may only be set to Contains or Starts With. Other browsers such as Chrome are always Contains. The activation of the find command is timing based. If it's not working for your browser, do not use the Position setting.
Depending on your OS version, you may be asked to grant Yate permission to control Safari, if Position is set.
Left to right the panel's toolbar icons are interpreted as follows:
