search

A text input paired with a list of suggestions that narrows as you type, where the list can be navigated and chosen from with the keyboard.

A keyboard-summoned overlay whose single search box finds and runs any command or destination in an application by name.

A panel of grouped checkboxes and ranges that narrows a result set, each option usually showing how many results it would leave.

A search field that builds structured queries from tokens, letting a reader filter by named properties with operators rather than free text.

The row of category buttons directly under a search field that narrows what the query searches, such as All, Mail, Files.

A text input specialised for queries, with a magnifier, a clear control and often suggestions that appear as you type.

A row of removable tokens above the results showing every filter currently in force, with a control to clear them all at once.

Offering a corrected spelling for a query that returned little or nothing, either as a suggestion to accept or as a substitution the reader can undo.

Narrowing results by ticking values from several independent attribute groups, with counts showing how many results each value would leave.

Completing the reader's text inside the field itself, with the guessed remainder selected so the next keystroke replaces it.

What a search or filtered list shows when nothing matched, naming the query, explaining why, and offering a way to loosen the constraints.

Assembling a condition from dropdowns and values, joined by and or or, so a non-programmer can express a query without writing one.

Offering suggestions that update on every keystroke, drawn from a live query, so the reader picks a result rather than finishing the phrase.
