Counting the number of documents in a search result

Using the Outliner to count the number of documents in your search results.

For any Search choose Ctrl + A to choose all the search results and then place those results in the Outliner view. (Note: to get an accurate count you must make sure the Outliner is fully expanded and every document is visible.) In the Footer bar, you will see the total number of items in the current Outliner View after you click any file inside the current Outliner view. IE the total number of the files from your current search. So you could use this method to find out how many scenes a POV character is in.

You could use to count how many documents have a certain status like done, or need work. Or how many have certain keywords, etc. (see below)
