What's the difference between Find and Nav?

[smcho]

Launching Leo, I see three tabs on the left side : Log, Find, Nav.

As I asked in this post (http://groups.google.com/group/leo-editor/
browse_thread/thread/f1ad9084d3afd097), I tried to use Find for
finding something (for example, finding the node that has @bool), but
I got nothing when I put the @bool in Find tab and enter.
However, surprisingly I get all the nodes that contains @bool with Nav
tab.

What's the usage of Find in Leo? When do I use Find? What's the
difference between Find and Nav?

Nav shows you all the results in the outline in one list, whereas find
provides the results one-by-one.

I wrote nav because I didn't really like how Find works.

For example, I have 'Ch1' string in node X, and node Y. I give 'Ch1'
in Find: window, and enter.
What is supposed to be given to where? And, why don't I get noting in
Log, Find, and somewhere?

I believe Find window doesn't really work.

The right way to use "Find" is to press ctrl+f.

Yes, I can get the result with Ctrl-f and query inside a mini buffer!
(I still don't understand why there's a find window.)

It shows you the present find settings.
