  2. When searching components, all SchLib, IntLib and DbLib libraries - available, or along a defined search path - will be interrogated. When searching footprints, all PcbLib and IntLib libraries will be interrogated.
  3. All results are listed in the Query Results listing, back in the Components panel.
