The Gazetteer Results pane shows the result of a Gazetteer Search. If the Gazetteer Results pane isn't displayed, show it by selecting Gazetteer Results in the Tools menu.

The results of the search will be shown both in the Gazetteer Results pane and as markers on the map, where the selected result is indicated by a pulsating marker.
The colour of the markers indicates the feature class of the geographic points.
The Gazetteer Results pane will be shown automatically when search results arrive, but it can also be shown by selecting Gazetteer Results in the Tools menu.

Regular searches are limited to batches of 100 results, whereas Show All Within Map Boundary searches for up to 1000 results.
If more results are available, clicking the Load More button will request the next batch of results. When more than 5000 results have been fetched the Load More button will be disabled, a limit imposed by GeoNames open_in_new.
The Clear button will clear the list of results and remove the map markers.

The upper half of the Gazetteer Results pane shows a list of results matching the search criteria. The list can be used to select the geographic point of interest.
It is also possible to click the map marker of a geographic point to select it, though this can be difficult if markers are close to or on top of each other.

Information about the selected geographic point is shown in the grid below the list. Click the + symbol next to Alternative Names, or double-click Alternative Names, to expand the list of alternative names of the geographical point.

To use the selected geographic point as one of the points for the Position Tools, right-click the list of results or information grid and selected which Position Tools point to set. If the right-click is performed on an information grid item containing an Internet link, the menu offers options to open the link in the default browser, or to copy it to the clipboard.
It is also possible to right-click the map marker of the geographical point for use in Position Tools.

Example of search results on the map.

The appearance of Gazetteer points on the map can be customised in the Tools Options (see the Options section). By default the Gazetteer colour scheme uses the same colour scheme as GeoNames open_in_new.
