in the header area of object search forms, provided that the full-text search is configured for an object type.

Click or tap on the
Search icon.
The search is executed and the hit list is shown.
Under certain conditions, the contents and index data of documents in zip files are also included in the full-text search. The prerequisite is that the documents in the zip files are suitable for indexing the full-text search. More specifically, if the rendition service of enaio® is able to generate renditions of the documents included in the zip files and display them in the content preview, for example, these documents will also be searched in full-text search requests.
The corresponding object type must also be configured in enaio® editor
for full-text search requests.
Full-text search in a document
In addition to full-text searches as described above, enaio® also allows you to search the contents of documents in the 
Content preview (see The Preview Area).
Full-text Search Hit Lists
The result of a full-text search is presented in the form of a special object list – the hit list. In addition to the object information and index data typically found in object lists, hit lists from full-text searches also display a text passage with the search term found in it and the quality of the hit found. The hits in the hit list are sorted according to their quality.
You can choose between the card view and table view via the 
More actions menu in the hit list’s header. Different functions are available depending on which view you choose when displaying the full-text search hit list:
Card view
The cards in a full-text search hit list display the object type as the title, a text passage with the search term found in it, the quality and, if applicable, the file type. The cards in full-text search hit lists are sorted by the quality of the hits. The sorting cannot be changed. You can, however, filter the cards according to title and text passage. Additional customization options are available in the table view.
Table view
In the table view, the hit list has a column for a text passage with the search term found in it (Preview column) and a column for the quality of the found hit (Quality column) in addition to the usual static and index data columns. You can filter, sort, and group the table in the same way as with any object list (see Options to Customize Object Lists). While the filter only considers the entries in the Preview column and index data columns, you can also group the Quality column in addition to these columns. You can sort the results of the full-text hit list according to the entries in each column by clicking or tapping a column header. You can undo changes that you have made directly in the hit list using the 
Reset layout function in the More actions menu.
