trackman Posted December 5, 2021 Report Share Posted December 5, 2021 Is there a way to do a search to find a pattern? Instead of going thru all 15 pages of “ people “ to find let’s say Gunsmoke or Dolly Parton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted December 5, 2021 Report Share Posted December 5, 2021 Open the pattern library, type gunsmoke in the search box at the top left of the screen, and below the search box should be a dropdown where you can select This Category. As long as the word you are searching for is in the title or listed as a key word you should see the patterns. Now that I look at it, I better make some key words for my patterns.

trackman Posted December 5, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2021 I don’t see any search box at the upper left using IPHONE that make a difference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 Well, I think it's a job for Travis. When I select the the pattern library to search I get 0 results. If I search all content I get a lot of results and the pattern library results are in there. But, like you said, you have to wade thru everything else.

Scrappile Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 It is not a great search,, the work you are searching for needs to be in the title I beleive like, Dan said... May tell what you are searching for we could help. It is time consumong to go theroug all the patterns and they are not always under the catagory you think they would be,,, I have lots of time right now,,, I am on light duty, do suppose to be doing physical stuff.. If I can help let me know what pattern you are looking for... If you know who made the pattern, you might try searching. for the person's name.

trackman Posted December 6, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 I am not looking for anything specific just thought that there would be a way to do a search. I don’t see any search boxes on my iPhone like Dan said there is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trackman Posted December 6, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 Thanks Dan & Scrappile. Went to the big computer and found a search box in upper right side (not a blue banner). Didn't enter anything in it, just clicked on it an than a drop down list of options to filter the search. Seems like things don't work the same on some computers. But anyway I got it now, if I don't forget how to do in next time I need to LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travis Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 Not sure about on a phone. It might be hidden on mobile. The search box has lots of options. I just wish it defaulted to the category you're currently in instead of searching the entire website. 'course it will only work if the person uploading the pattern titled the image or put your keyword in the description. A lot of times, it's just "img456.jpg", which isn't too helpful. kmmcrafts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
