# File search animated icon

The file is searched and the match is found. Light: the magnifier makes one quick searching loop over the sheet, stops dead back on its spot and zooms in on the find (it swells and settles). Strong: a short dip, a faster and wider loop, a harder stop, and a bigger zoom that settles in two beats. The sheet holds still under it.
