In bilingual dictionaries, two buttons with the language flag enable you to restrict the index or the result window to entries belonging from one of the dictionary sections.
- The Search tab enables more advanced searches by filling one or more input fields.
If you fill more input fields, the result of the search contains entries that comply with all the conditions.
The Search button lauches the search. The Clear button clears all parameters of the current search. The Favorite button stores the current list of results in the list of favorites: only lists with 1 to 50 results can be stored into the favorites.
Advanced searches: To search for expressions made of several words, enclose the entire expression with quotation marks.
Two ore more (unquoted) words, separated by a blank space, are evaluated as they were linked by the OR operator (the result show entries that contain at least one of the input words).
Two ore more (unquoted) words, separated by the operator &&, are evaluated as they were linked by the AND operator (the result show entries that contain all the input words)).
You can use standard wild card characters in any input field: * (any number of any character) and ? (any single character).
Predefined search fields: Fields with a button on the right with three dots give a choice among predefined parameters. The button opens a popup window in which you can make your selection.

You can select several parameters by performing several times the same operation: in this case the search will comply with entries that contain at least one of the predefined parameters.
