Global search bar

The workbench now has a global search field in the tool bar.

Multi-drag sash

You can now place the cursor at the intersection of two or more sashes and drag them all at the same time. When you are going to be dragging multiple sashes, the cursor will change to one with 4-way arrows. The image below indicates one such intersection with a red circle.

Search Facets - how to create a new search facets in ATG Search
