 ===== Searching =====
+{{ :PIMSLS_searching.mp4?direct |}}
 ==== User interface ====
-On clicking the "Toggle Search Panel" button search panel opens up that allows you to search different slides for selected PMA.core server.
+PIMS LS provides multiple ways to search slides which have been indexed by a PMA.core. Clicking the "Toggle Search Panel" button opens up the search panel.\\
+Here you can search for slides within the selected PMA.core server.
-{{:pma-search-ui.png?nolink&600|}}
+The Search panel can be activated from the home tab:
+{{:search_3.0.png?direct |}}
+==== Searching Filenames ====
+To conduct a search you need to select a PMA.core server from the dropdown list.\\
+By default the currently logged in PMA.core server is selected. \\
+{{ :searchslide.png?direct |}}
+The default search term is 'Slide' and 'Path' which will search the paths / filenames for something matching the value you type in to the text box.
+====Searching Form Results====
+By clicking on the first dropdown menu (default:Slide) you will open a dropdown menu which will allow you to select a Form to search instead of a Slidename.
+When you select a form, in the second dropdown menu you will see the different questions in the form for you to select for your search
+{{ :searchform.png?direct |}}
+Now you can type the value you are looking for into the search value box, and running the search will find slides that have that result.
+====Multiple Search Conditions====
+By clicking 'Add condition' you can define a second term to your search:
+  * For example, lets say you wanted to search for a file in "Study X" with a HER2 score of 2+
+  * You could define search term 1 as Slide Path "Study X", and search term 2 as HER2 form -> HER2 score "2+"
+  * The search would bring back only slides with "Study X" in the name and a result of 2+ in the HER2 form, HER2 status question
+{{ :conduct_search.png?direct |}}
+====AND vs OR: Logical Operators====
+By default the AND logical operator is selected.
+When AND is selected, the search will only bring up results that match ALL search conditions.
+However, you can change the logical operator to "OR". This will fetch results that meet ANY of the search terms you have put in.
-==== Conducting searches ====
 ==== Interpreting results ====
-==== Refining search commands and troubleshooting ====
+Once you have selected search conditions and press "Search" a list of results will appear if found. \\
+The results consists of "Folder", "Slide name" and the "Load to grid" button which loads the selected slide to the viewport
+{{:search-results.png?direct&600|}}
+==== Refining Search Commands and Troubleshooting ====
+The search panel lets you select multiple forms or slide paths and apply conditions to get the desired results. \\
+You can add or remove conditions at will using the "remove" button.
-==== Integration with PMA.search ====
+{{:refine_search.png?direct&600|}}
