The status slip displayed by the Find service includes the Find icon and
name, an animated busy indicator that looks like a barber pole, and the name
of the application currently being searched. The status slip also includes a
Stop button, which allows the user to halt the search in progress.
Search Results 8
If a search finds just one item, that item is displayed behind the Find slip. If a
search finds more than one item, the Find service displays an overview list of
the found items. Figure 8-11 depicts a Find overview as it might appear after
searching all applications for “man.”
