# Quick Add
The Quick Add function in FME Form offers a rapid solution (compared to the Transformer Gallery) for locating and adding transformers to the Canvas, especially when you know what you are looking for.
To get started with the Quick Add, all you need to do is start typing your search expression and it will automatically appear:
## Quick Add Search
The trick to using the Quick Add effectively is to use refined search terms.
Just like the Transformer Gallery, the Quick Add searches on transformer names and descriptions:
Refining your search terms to use as little keystrokes as possible to return the correct transformer is key to being an efficient user of the Quick Add tool.
Typing out the word **Attribute** when searching for an transformers that belong to the category is going to return an enormous list, that you will need to scroll through to find the correct choice.
Recognising sub-strings that return refined lists will greatly speed up your FME development. Why search for the AttributeManager when you can search for **Mana** (for example):
### Sort Order
The Quick Add has options to control the sort order of transformers that match your search query, located in the top right of the pop up:
Using these options allow results to be sorted by:
* **Relevance** - What is deemed as the most suitable, given the search expression.
* **Alphabetically** - Simply from A to Z.
* **Popularity** - Using the rank each transformer is assigned from users that opt into sending anonymous statistics to Safe Software. Extremely useful if you want to see what other authors are using the most!
### Title Case
The Quick Add tool also allows the use of Title Case initials as a shortcut for transformer names, to form an acronym as the search term.
By retaining the first letter of each word in the transformer name, you can save a lot of time searching for transformer with longer names:
