The Search Panel can be opened by doing a right-click on the extension's book icon, and selecting "Search in library" :
You can also set a keyboard shortcut for it in your settings (by default, it's alt-E).
A dialog box will pop up :
(1) Start typing text in the search bar to look for items. Search is multi-field and will query the item's abstract, title, tags, year, authors' last names and citekey.
(2) Navigate through the results list using up/down arrows.
(3) Select an item with left-click or Enter.
In Quick Copy mode, the item's reference will be copied to the clipboard and the search panel will close.
In default mode, selecting an item will render its metadata, along with options to copy its citekey, navigate to the item's Roam page, import its metadata, and access PDF attachments & notes.
If you'd like to always copy the item's reference, you can specify this in your settings.
