# Quick Search

Quick Search lets you move around Praktik and find legislation without leaving the page you are currently on.

## Opening Quick Search

Press **Ctrl-K** on Windows/Linux or **Cmd-K** on macOS.

A search menu opens on top of the current page. Start typing immediately to search, or choose one of the recommended destinations.

## What you can do

### Navigate around the app

Quick Search includes shortcuts to commonly used areas of the app. Type the name of a section, a related keyword, a common alternative name, or an abbreviation such as OZ. For example, you can type terms such as “documents”, “laws”, “court”, “settings”, or their Slovak equivalents where available.

### Search for legislation

You can also search directly for legislation from the same menu. Search works with:

- Official names of acts and regulations
- Common short names and abbreviations, such as OBZ or PZ
- Legislation numbers and codes, such as `311/2001` or `1/2023`
- Topic-style queries, where available in the legislation index

The jurisdiction selector in the search box determines which country or EU source set is searched.

Selecting a legislation result opens the latest available version of that legislation. If the result points to a specific section or paragraph, Praktik opens the relevant legal instrument and scrolls directly to that part.

## Tips

- Use **Ctrl/Cmd-K** whenever you want to jump somewhere quickly.
- If you know a law number, type it directly.
- If you do not know the exact number, type the law name, abbreviation, or a few words describing what you are looking for.
- Change the jurisdiction before searching if you want results from another country.

## Closing Quick Search

Press **Esc**, click outside the menu, or select a result to close the menu.
