Searching Your Own Spectra (Mac only)
One of the advantages of storing detailed information with your spectra is that you can later find them even when you no longer remember their names.
Hints
- The Finder has many advanced features that let you find all the spectra that match a characteristic, such as the observed nucleus or molecular weight. You can add as many conditions as you like, search, inspect the list of results and preview the documents, all with the Finder.
- If you perform the search with the Finder, add the condition that the file name must end with “.inmr” to filter out the backup files.
- iNMR offers a specific dialog (Edit > Search). The most relevant search fields are already there: simply fill in the fields you need. Searches across the entire computer can be slow. It will be much faster if restricted to a folder or to the results of the previous search (button: in results).
- Click the button Clear All to empty all the cells. If you have already edited or cleared the fields, click “Last Query” to restore the previous search.
- A single click on a result shows additional information about the selected document. A double-click opens it.
- The nucleus menu simply saves typing. What matters is the text written in the field beside it.
