How do I search across Visualist?
The short version
Use the Search field in the top bar, or the Search button in the mobile header, to search across your workspace by text, image, or color.
Search covers Hubs, folders, images, products, designs, palettes, Notes, Comments, messages, action items, and Drive across your workspace.
Search across your workspace
- Open search. Enter a query in the
Searchfield in the top bar and pressEnter. On mobile, tap theSearchbutton in the header. - Choose how to search. Search by text to match words, by image to find visually similar pictures, or by color to find images built around a particular shade.
- Combine conditions. Add
and,or, andnotgroups to narrow things down, for example a color paired with a keyword, minus a hub you want to exclude. - Move through the results. On a keyboard, use
Arrow UpandArrow Downto move between results.HomeandEndjump to the first or last result. PressEnterto open the selected result.
What search covers
A single search looks through Hubs, folders, images, products, designs, palettes, Notes, Comments, messages, action items, and Drive. A half-remembered Note and a file shared in a message can appear in the same results.
Good to know
Image search finds visual matches even when the file names differ. Drop in a reference and Visualist returns the closest matches from your library.
