Question re: navigating within 11.2's data tree "Search" feature...

I'm likely grasping at straws in asking the following question.

Is anyone aware if there is an easy technique - requiring maybe just a few clicks - to navigate from the Search results to the relevant view/namespace of the data tree where a particular data items in the Search results resides?

What I mean is, if as an Author, I search on "X" and the results include five hits.  And, I want to work with the data item which is the fourth hit but more specifically I want jump to the view/namespace of the data tree where that fourth data item resides, is there a shortcut to do that?

The only 11.2 navigation that I see is to (a) close out of the Search results and then (b) manually scroll to where the Author knows that selected data item resides.

Just to give COGnoise-ers confidence, I do know that the desired data item can be easily inserted into the report's container from within the Search results list.  I'm specifically looking for shortcut(s) to navigate AWAY to the relevant larger view/namespace where I can see other data items which are related to that selected data item from the Search results.

Thanks mucho.

I can't envision what you are asking about.  Is this the search feature on the main page?  Are you searching in the Insertable Objects pane in the report authoring tool?  Something else?

Maybe provide a step-by-step of what to click to get to where your question starts.
