## Finding the Topic You Want

To display help information in this window, click a topic in the Contents sidebar. Click the plus icon triangle next to a topic to see its subtopics.

To search for a help topic, type a word or phrase in the Search bar to see related topics. Click on a topic to read about it. If your search doesn't return any topics, try typing fewer words or a different combination of words. The results will be displayed in the sidebar as you type. To display the contents in the sidebar again, clear the Search bar or press `Esc`.

To see information related to the Help topic you are reading, click links in the Help window just as you would in a regular web page. You can also move back and forth between pages you've already seen using the Back and Forward buttons.

## Search Tips

If you don't find what you want, here are a few helpful tips:

- Be sure that you are searching for something that relates to &brandShortName;; this is not a general Internet search.
- Try to broaden your search - don't be too specific; terms could be worded differently than your search.
- Avoid being too broad with your search. For example, a common word like "page" will probably return more topics than you want.
