As of v9.07 SP1 saving and loading of search templates has been modified.^[188]

Now the rarely required button Save search is integrated in an own dialog box Manage search templates ... (Suchvorlagen verwalten ...) as button Add current search (Aktuelle Suche hinzufügen).

Calling the dialog box Manage search templates ... happens via the same-named menu item in the opened list field of the button Search templates.

The menu item Manage search templates ... (Suchvorlagen verwalten ...) can be hidden via $CADENAS_SETUP/partsol.cfg -> section [PARTdataManager] -> key TOP_SHOW_QUERYMANAGER=false. If desired - thus the respective functions can only be used by the administration/consulting in order to create own company templates.

Loading a XML template for a geometric search can be realized via scripting. When the search is started in the CAD system the template will be automatically loaded.

The current recommendation for Geosearch projects is: Create one template for Geosearch in native parts only, and one template for Keyword search in all catalogs. Also it may be useful to have a Keyword search in standards only.

Please provide feedback for good OOTB templates to the development team. We try to pre-configure good search templates based on consulting experience in the next releases.
