Search on Canvas in HACP EE

Introduction
The Search on Canvas feature allows Users to search for specific keywords/text in the green screen and will appear at the top of the presentation screen on the client side. The search results for a successful search is highlighted with a rectangular box.
​

Brief Description
The Search On Canvas feature uses the searchTextVisible parameter of the config file, which is defined with a Boolean value (True/False).
(For example: searchTextVisible = true or searchTextVisible = false)

• If searchTextVisible = true, the search on canvas checkbox under the Settings panel will be checked, and the Search On Canvas option will be visible on the screen.
• If searchTextVisible = false, the search on canvas checkbox under the Settings panel will be un-checked, and the Search On Canvas option will be hidden from the screen.

For Config Model: If the search on canvas checkbox is enabled/disabled at the Client side, the changes are updated in the HOD config file, and will be in sync with the Host On-Demand application. 
 
For HTML and Combined Model: If the search on canvas checkbox is enabled/disabled at the Client side, the changes are saved to the current session browser property for future use.
