The Search Panel can be opened by doing a right-click on the extension's book icon, and selecting "Search in dataset..." :
You can also open it with a shortcut : it's alt-Q by default, but if it does not work or if it conflicts with other shortcuts you might have, you can set up a custom shortcut.
A dialog box will pop up :
(1) Start typing text in the search bar to look for items. Current searched fields are title, year, tags, citekey and authors' last names.
Starting with v0.6.0, search is multi-field which means that looking for an author's name + a year will now return results.
(2) Navigate through the results list using Tab or up/down .
(3) Select an item with left-click or Enter.
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 see its attached PDF + notes.
If Quick Copy mode is enabled (top-left), the item's citekey will be copied to the clipboard and the search panel will close.
