The WebOffice mobile client gives you by default a drop-down list with all pre-defined queries and a text field for search keywords on the right side of the upper segment of the toolbar.

On small displays there is a separate button in the upper segment of the toolbar. This button opens the query in a new tab:

 

Query in the upper right part of the WebOffice mobile client - tablet mode

Query in the WebOffice mobile client - phone mode

If you click the arrow button next to the query field, then the list including pre-defined queries, global and thematic full-text search will be opened. The user can pick one of the queries, the currently activated query will be highlighted. The list will be closed if you pick a query or with the x-button, that appeared instead of the arrow button.

After having picked a query you can enter a search keyword into the text field. The WebOffice mobile client automatically creates a list of suggestions based on the entry. The search field type in the mobile client is always value list with auto-complete. The tip in the search field can be changed via the tooltip configuration of value list with auto-complete and therefore is only valid for the query it belongs to. Thus, in WebOffice mobile client there can be defined different tooltips for various queries but only one general minimum input length and allocation of suggestions. With a click on the cross next to the text input field, the entered query term can be deleted at once.

Note: For WebOffice mobile query settings must be configured at different places of the project.

Tooltip: In order to display a specific tooltip you need to configure a Value list with auto-complete in the respective pre-defined query

Minimum user input length: The standard minimum user input length is set to 1. To change this, configure Generic Search - Value List Behavior

Wait time [ms]: If you want to increase or decrease the time until suggestions are displayed after entering a query input you need to configure WebOffice mobile

LIKE search option: In order to use a specific search option you need to configure a Value list with auto-complete in the respective pre-defined query

Count of suggestions: Specify the number of suggestions displayed in the drop-down list also in a Value list with auto-complete in the respective pre-defined query

The magnifier symbol lets the query run.

Alternatively it is possible to run the query directly from the list of the suggestions.

 

Run query of a suggestion - tablet mode

Run query of a suggestion - tablet mode

 

If configured the WebOffice mobile client supports a search history giving the user the option to choose from entered query terms earlier performed queries. In this process earlier performed queries will be displayed distinguishing if the query was run by the magnifier button or if a suggestion has been selected. If configured the search history will be accessed as soon as the user clicks into the text input field.

In case a suggestions has been selected the search history will show a list symbol at the right side of the suggestion, the suggestion itself will be displayed as <entered query term> - (object name of the selected suggestion) - <query name>.
