If the search is successful, the matched text in the document will be hilited and your focus will be taken to the line containing the match. If the search is not successful, a dialog box for match not found will be displayed.
Now if you want to search again, you can do this by clicking find button on the main toolbar. This will find the next match in the previously specified direction. You can even change the search text when you do find again if you so wish. Enter the new string in the Find string entry box in the main toolbar.
