Configuring The Search While Typing Option - eCopy ShareScan 4.2 Installation And Setup Manual

Configuring the Search while typing option

The Search while typing option enables ShareScan to automatically search for matching address
list entries after each character the user enters. This is a useful feature when the user is searching a
long list for an entry. The user does not have to type the entire name in the field.
Example:
A user wants to enter "Chris Levesque" in a user name field. As the user enters "c", the Client displays the first
address entry that begins with "c". As the user enters "h", the Client displays the first address entry that begins
with "ch". As the user enters "r", the Client displays the first address entry that begins with "chr". If there are
multiple users with the name "Chris", the user can press the down arrow and select "Chris Levesque".
eCopy recommends that you select this option only when the address list server responds fast
enough to allow rapid auto-completion.
By default, this option is enabled. If you do not want to use it, you must clear the Search while
typing check box.
If the Search while typing option is not enabled, a user can manually activate the option. If the
ScanStation Client is configured to use the hard keyboard, the user enters one or more characters
and then presses the Search icon. If the Client is configured to use the on-screen (soft) keyboard,
the user enters one or more characters and then presses the Search button.
Example:
A user enters "c"' and nothing happens. The user then presses the Search icon or button. The Client then fills in
the field with the first address list entry beginning with "c".
