     11* The search action will respect the current [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/Filter filters] meaning it wouldn't return any of the filtered objects.
     12* Colons (`:`) within ''keys'' and ''values'' need to be wrapped with quotation marks (`"`).
     13* Hover over a keyword in the search hints section to get a explanation and special examples.
     14* Double click on a preset listed in the search window to add the query to search for objects that match this preset.
    1015
    11 You need to choose one of the search and select modes:
     16[[Image(Search.png,link=,70%)]]
    1217
    13 * replace selection
    14 * add to selection
    15 * remove from selection
    16 * find in selection
     18== Expert mode ==#ExpertMode
     19In [wikitr:/Help/ExpertMode expert mode], the following options are added:
     20* more keywords are listed (they work also in non-expert mode, but are hidden in the dialog)
     21* **standard/regular expression/MapCSS selector** radio button, see sections below for details
     22* **all objects** check box to include **''deleted''** and **''incomplete''** objects in the search
     23* **add toolbar button** see [wikitr:/Help/Action/Search#SavesearchqueryinMaintoolbar save search query in main toolbar] below.

    18 If you check '''add toolbar button''', as soon as you click on
    19 [[Image(source:trunk/images/dialogs/search.png,middle)]] '''Start Search''', a button will be added to the [wiki:Help/MainToolbar Main Toolbar] which will execute the defined search expression each time, you press the button. You can also set an own icon for this button in the [wiki:Help/Preferences/Advanced Advanced Preferences].

     27== Examples ==#Examples
    2128Some examples of queries:
    22 
    2329* `type:way` selects all ways
    2430* `name:Herrengasse` selects all elements with the given name
    2531* `name=Herrengasse` same as above, but case sensitive
    26 * `"name"="Herrengasse"` same as above, but works also with special characters like white spaces in the value
     32* `"addr:street"="Baker Street"` if special characters (in this case `:` in the key and white space in the value) are used, the key resp. the value needs to be enclosed in `""`
     33* `tag1=yes tag2=yes` is equivalent to `tag1=yes & tag2=yes`
    2734* `type:way name:-` selects all ways that do not have a name
    2835* `id:123465678` selects an object (way or node) with a particular id
    2936* `timestamp:2010-11-01/2010-12-01` selects object with last change in November 2010
     37* `preset:"Craft/Beekeeper"` selects objects that match the beekeeper preset
     38* See also [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/Filter#Examples Examples]
    3039
    31 There is also a very under-used and under-documented feature that lets you enter a web URL (`file://`, `http://`, `https://`, `ftp://`)
    32 in the search field. JOSM will then attempt to load that URL, and select any objects that it finds referenced in that file. JOSM will
    33 look for XML tags "way", "node", and "relation" in the document, and use their id attribute. This means you can
    34 access another OSM file on your hard disk this way and have JOSM select all objects that are present in the file (provided they are present in JOSM's dataset too).
     40== Save search query in [wikitr:/Help/MainToolbar main toolbar] ==#SavesearchqueryinMaintoolbar
     41To ''save search as a button'' if you check **add toolbar button** checkbox, as soon as you click on [[JOSMImage(dialogs/search)]] **Start Search**, a button will be added to the main toolbar. which will execute the defined search expression each time, you press the button.
    3542
    36 The special expressions `selected` and `modified` select all currently selected resp. all objects modified in the current session.
     43* [[JOSMImage(preferences/toolbar,link=,24,middle)]] [wikitr:/Help/Preferences/Toolbar#Previouslysavedsearchresults Toolbar Customization] will let you modify icon, search query and tooltip.
     44* As with any button you can always assign a shortcut to it in [[JOSMImage(preferences/shortcuts,link=,24,middle)]] [wikitr:/Help/Preferences/Shortcuts Shortcut Preferences].

     55* JOSM will then attempt to load that URL, and select any objects that it finds referenced in that file.
     56* JOSM will look for XML tags "way", "node", and "relation" in the document (clarify? examples?), and use their id attribute .
     57* You can access another OSM file on your hard disk this way and have JOSM select all objects that are present in the file (provided they are present in JOSM's dataset too).

     59Similar thing is possible via:
     60* [wikitr:/Help/CommandLineOptions Command line parameter] during JOSM start-up
     61* [wikitr:/Help/Preferences/RemoteControl Remote control] command
