A search field is an input field that helps users locate objects, actions or text in an application.

looks like it would make sense to create a group of input fields and place the search field in there


* For a search field shown without a toolbar, for example, Search in trees, the search width could be adjusted on typing to accommodate input.
* For a search field that is not fitted to a toolbar, set the minimum width to 200
* For a search which is fitted to the toolbar, expand the field to the toolbar width.

a search field inside a toolbar (is it true that it should be expanded to t eh toolbar width? maybe add a screenshot here?)


Use the Context help font color for the attributes' names as they are secondary to their values.

does it mean the field is resized as the user types more? does it really work this way?

Yes, it does. But it's the speed search that is mentioned here, I'll change 'without a toolbar' because it's vague

not clear what you mean by "not fitted"? that it is a normal (not inline) field is used inisde the toolbar? I'd rephrase and add images for each example if possible

Yes, it's a normal search field for example in the Search and Replace Toolbar. I'll rework this part
