Select the Search Button and enter the search criteria.
As shown above the Search In Database Components and Table Parts.
The Search form includes drop down Field and Value boxes.
Unfortunately Altium's Library Search does not include cascade filtering, for example as shown below the user selected a Resistor.
In the third row unrelated data for the Resistor may be selected for the Value field.
Also the data in the value fields is random, NOT sorted A to Z.

Due to the modal behavior of the form and lack of cascade filtering several iterations are often required to obtain useful results from the search.

About the Parts' Filter:
Part's Filter shown below is not modal and has cascade filtering.
The cascade filtering provides intelligent filtered choices.
The non modal behavior of the form provides instant feedback.
Also the data in the fields is sorted.
