Is there a way to limit the number of results return when doing a search?

James Lee Feb 16, 2012 2:10 AM

Let's say I have 1000 SolidWorks drawing, when I search for all SolidWorks drawing using *.slddrw, I only want to show the first 50 results.

Can I make the search field mandatory meaning I have to type in for example customer name when I search for all SolidWorks drawing?

James,

first question, how sure are you that the file,which you are searching is in that first 50 results ?

To get the lesser results, we need to enter the search criterias.

Secondly, Currently it is not possible to make a field mandatory in the search ! This is intresting, could you share more information of why'
do you would like to have a specific field as mandatory.

Regards,
Raghav

  Hi Raghav,
  
  Thanks for your reply.
  
  I want the field mandatory so the search result will be lesser & faster.
  
  Do you know how fast it takes to search 1000 files? Is there a guide?
  
  Please advise.
  
  Regards
  James

    Dear James,
    
    As i mentioned in my previous post, currently it is not possible to flag a field as mandatory in EPDM Search and it is current
              limitation.
       2. User needs to enter the search criteria to narrow down the result. There is no such stastics that how fast EPDM can search
              1000 or more files, it would range any where between 1 min maximum. and it may be more if you have the replicated setup
    
    Regards,
    Raghav.
