Here's something I do a lot. I'll read an article, quote it in a document and then forget where I quoted it from. Then I'll have a rummage, fail to find the document and have to remove the quote, undermining the argument I was trying to build.
This happened to me this morning and I had an idea. Perhaps Papers can find it for me. The quote was:
"
However, most Yers ...".
I selected "Papers" at the top of the left hand pane to bring up all articles.
Then in the search box typed my quote:
And up came the relavent document:
I was then able to click on the document and find the quote that I had highlighted previously.
This may sound like a trivial task but I can see that this would also be very useful when checking the validity of quotes when proofing a document.
