More Information
Summary:A type-ahead navigation feature typically allows users to navigate to a first resource whose name begins with an inputted character or a sequence of input characters typed in quick succession. The type-ahead navigation feature may not be useful when the resource name comprises multiple parts or where a first set of characters in the resource name is irrelevant in locating a requisite resource name. Functionality can be implemented to initiate the type-ahead navigation feature against any character position in the resource name. By providing the users with an ability to specify a part of the resource name or a character position within the resource name against which the type-ahead navigation feature should be initiated, resource navigation efficiency can be improved.
