The partial search is active by default.^[86]

However, the fingerprints for the partial search for a catalog are only created if configured. To create the fingerprints for the catalog "mycatalog", for example, set the following key in geomsearch.cfg:

PartialSearchCatalogs=cat/mycatalog

If you want to set more than one catalog, separate the entries by comma.

This setting applies to every way fingerprints can be created.

Finally create the geometrical index for the whole catalog.

	Note
	Background information: The generation of fingerprints for the partial search is significantly more time consuming than the generation of normal fingerprints. Furthermore the fingerprints need more disk space. That's why they are not generated by default for all catalogs.
