When you open the search panel from inside a diagram, its scope grows to include that diagram's own contents: its tabs and the elements on them. This is what turns search into a within-diagram jump tool, not just a way to open a different diagram.
Tabs
The Tabs group matches the diagram's tabs by name, and marks the one you are currently on so you can tell a jump from a no-op. Picking a tab switches to it. On a diagram with many tabs (or tab folders) this is quicker than scanning the tab bar.
Elements
The Elements group matches elements by their label and, when you pick one, switches to its tab and selects it, so you land exactly on the thing you were looking for. Element ids are unique across the whole diagram, so a match points at one specific element wherever it lives.
Text inside tables
Tables do not have a single label, their text lives in the cells. So a table matches through its cells: the first cell whose text matches your query becomes the result's label, and picking it takes you to that table. That means you can find a value tucked inside a table without remembering which table, or which tab, it is on.
This scope only appears inside a diagram. From the Explorer or the dashboard, search covers your diagrams, folders, and teams instead, see Finding Diagrams and Folders.
