Searching All Versions in the Database
When the All Versions in Database () search mode is selected, you can match any item version in the database irrespective of which branch it was saved to or if it is the latest version of its corresponding item. The location link button, available in a search window’s upper right corner when Searching Latest Versions for Locations, is hidden for this search mode and, in the case of the Model Manager window, replaced by the label of the database.
The All Versions in Database () search mode lets you browse and search the database in its entirety at the expense of possibly hard-to-navigate search results with often identically-titled versions. It is primarily suited for when you want to define a selection of versions based on various filter criteria in order to perform maintenance operations on them via The Maintenance Window or when you want to find an older version by applying filters on commit comments, saved dates, or other history-related item fields.
The search mode supports full text search and all Item Filters expect for Tag. No Content Filters except Part are supported.
Unsupported filters are disabled in the Add Filter menu () when you select the All Versions in Database () search mode in the Open, Select File, Select Model, and Model Manager windows.
When Opening a Local Database from Multiple COMSOL Multiphysics Processes, the search functionality in the All Versions in Database () search mode will be further limited to only support full text search for all processes except the first one to open the database. No filters are supported
