After the Search is completed, ELAN displays the following search results:
The number of annotations where the search item was found.
The full content of each annotation where the search item was found along with full content of its parent annotation and all its child annotation.
The begin, end time and duration of each annotation where the search item was found. To see more information per match, right click in the results and check the other desired fields (file – tier – before – after ).
Clicking the header of a column sorts the result table based on that column. Depending on the column, sorting is by alphabet or by time value. Clicking the header again changes the sorting from descending to ascending or vice versa.
