Quick links to procedures on this page:
With the Corel CONNECT docker, you can browse for content, or you can search for content by using keywords.
You can browse and search for content in one or multiple locations on your computer or local network as well as online. You can also navigate to previously viewed content.
Searching for content
You can search by the name, category (for example, clipart, photo images, or fonts), or reference information (for example, tags or notes) associated with a file. When you type a term in the Search and address box and initiate a search, all matching files are displayed as thumbnail images in the viewing pane. For example, if you type flower, the application automatically filters out all files that do not match and displays only the files that have the word flower in the filename, category, or tags assigned to the file. You can also type phrases and multiple words, and you can fine-tune your search by using Boolean operators such as AND, NOT, and OR. For example, you can find content that contains both flower and sun images by typing flowers AND sun. For information about adding tags and reference information, see To add drawing information.
To increase the search speed for local content and improve results, you can adjust the Windows Search options by adding more locations to the index.
You can also find all images on a webpage by typing the web address. For example, typing www.corel.com displays all the images that appear on the Corel website.
Refining your search
By default, your search results include all relevant content such as vector graphics, bitmaps, and fonts. You can narrow down the search results by excluding content. For example, if you are searching for graphics, you can display only vector graphics or only bitmaps. If you want to choose a font for your project, you can display only fonts.
You can widen the scope of a search, and you can cancel a search at any time.
