Asset Search Provider

Asset Search Provider vs. Asset Database search

Search uses its own Asset indexer, which is faster and more flexible than the Asset Database or the Project Browser.

К примеру:

  • You can type a file extension and it will find all Assets with that extension.
  • It matches against directory name
  • It does a partial search

Searching the file system

If you use the asterisk (*) in a query, Search performs both a normal search and a wildcard search against the file systems. This allows you to include files not indexed by the Asset database in your searches.
