You can use Designer to find elements and variables (fields) within elements using the following methods:
*Searching for elements in the Package Navigator view. When creating and editing elements, you might lose track of where you saved certain elements. For example, suppose that you do not remember the folder to which you saved a service called Test. You can use either the Search dialog box or the Open Integration Server Element dialog box to search for elements.
*Locate an invoked service from the editor. You can highlight the location of an invoked service in the Package Navigator view. This is especially helpful when working with a flow written by another party or complex flows that make multiple invokes.
*Locate a referenced document type from the editor. You can highlight the location of a referenced document type in the Package Navigator view. This is especially helpful when working with services with complex signatures, mapping data, or working with flow services written by other developers.
*Linking open editors. If you have a lot of elements open, you might want to quickly bring the editor for an element to the top of the stack of open editor views.
