== Overview ==

Add interface for improved keyword selection (see [wiki:KeywordSelection]) from metadata editor to advanced search.

 * '''Type''': GUI Change
 * '''App''': !GeoNetwork
 * '''Module''': Search Interface

=== Links ===
 * '''Documents''':
 * '''Email discussions''':
 * '''Other wiki discussions''':

=== Voting History ===

----

== Motivations ==
The metadata editor has a nice interface to pick keywords from thesauri. It would be useful to have the same functionality in the advanced search for reasons of:

  * quicker access to keywords through search functionality
  * pick keywords based on themes (through thesauri)
  * continuity in interface design (search + editor)

== Proposal == 

=== Advanced search with added button ===
[[Image(thesaurus-search-button.png)]]

=== Select keywords ===

=== Keywords in advanced search ===

== Details ==

 * Re-use of the extJS `app.KeywordSelectionPanel` from here: [wiki:KeywordSelection]
