Searching by Temporal Indexes
Temporal Indexes are a useful type of index that give the designer the ability
to search time periods. Searching a Temporal Index builds an internal index of
all objects that have an overlap between the period search for and the time
given within the indexed field.
First open the table which you wish to view edit the objects in as
previously described.
Then view the table indexes as previously described.
Use the mouse to select the index you wish to view, making sure that the blue
highlight is on the desired index, right click with the mouse bottom and select
"Search Index".
Once the "Searching Temporal Index" dialog box appears, enter the values of
the dates and/or times defining the period that you wish to search within.
note:
this search will return any objects that have an overlapping space with the
search period, not just all the objects that can fit entirely within the period
space.
Then select "OK"
