<p>Adaptive Search is an application independent Find pane based filtering
method for known content. The content may be presented in list or grid format. </p>
<p>The search strips the characters, symbols and numbers from the items of
known content, and displays them in a grid format on top of the content. User
is able to select them one by one and content is filtered to show matching
items accordingly. </p>
