The user can find assets by the means of free text search by clicking the white rectangle in the top bar.

While the user types in the text, the results are narrowed down in real time. 

The top 8 6 asset results appear in the list under the search box without having to execute the search. Each list item contains a small thumbnail, title and location of the asset. Hovering mouse pointer over each item will result in a larger asset preview on the right. The larger preview offers the access to a few more metadata values as well as a few action options (favorite, share, download, crop, replace, audit trail and print).

The user has the ability to save all search results obtained from a combination of attributes (e.g. free-text search, filters). The saved search is dynamic, i.e. it is updated as more or less assets available in the system can be categorised by the aforementioned attributes.

A user saves all the images with the keyword "business". At the time there are 18 search results. Since then 2 more images with the same keyword are added. Next time the user accesses the saved search, there are 20 results available.

In order to save search results, the user needs to click "Save search" button available in the panel between folder menu and the assets. In the pop-up window the user can then name the new search.
