A {{man button|🔍 Search}} box in the top right side of the window can be used to quickly focus on a person, including any persons not currently displayed. Any part of a name can be searched, as well as the Gramps Database ID. At least three characters are required before the search displays results. The list of search results can be scrolled with a mouse wheel or touch pad, or up and down arrow keys. Click on a person in the search to focus immediately on that person, or press the Escape key to cancel the search. Persons found in the search that include a plus sign '''+''' indicate that person is a spouse of a descendant.

The {{man button|？ Help}} button will display usage for the viewer. Click either the {{man button|X - Close}} button or press the {{man button|Escape}} key to close the help window.
