Finding tags in the home area
To locate the tags in the home area, right-click a blank area of the folder pane, and then
select Go To Home Area. The home area is selected automatically.
For more information about the home area, see page 10-7.
Searching for and selecting tags
Use Find to search for every occurrence of a specific tag or text string throughout many
different components within FactoryTalk View SE applications. Find also locates all the
text strings within each component that refer to the tag. Cross Reference shows a list of all
the tags and all the components that refer to those tags.
You can also use the tag browser.
