Wildcard matching

The Search Line can contain wildcard symbols ? (matches any one character), * (matches any characters number) or ranges of characters [...]. To find characters ?, *, [ and ] it should be escaped with backslash like \?, \*, \[, \].

!!! note The wildcard symbol at first position in word leads to full headwords list scanning and it may take a long time for huge dictionaries.

The dictionaries bar contains all dictionaries from current dictionaries group. Click the icons to disable/enable them.

Hold Shift and click dictionary bar will temporally focus on a single dictionary. Hold Shift and click again to defocus and restore the previous dictionaries bar state.
