The Finder

The Finder is used to locate an object in the Metadevice Editor Window, or to locate the device associated with a specified mount point. The Finder is accessed from the Browse menu on the Metadevice Editor window.

• To locate an object inside the Metadevice Editor window, select the Find choice and either type the device name, or click the radio button beside Mount Point and type the mount point to find (see Figure 4-23). If the object is anywhere on the canvas, it is placed in the upper left corner. The object will become the current selection (any previously selected objects will be deselected.) If the object is in the Device List, it is opened and placed in the upper left corner of the canvas. The text fields are not case sensitive. Wildcard character support includes both the asterisk (*) and question mark (?). The asterisk matches zero or more characters and the question mark matches one character.
