Is there any built-in mechanism in iCarousel for searching its views, filtering them by content? Like this - https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/uikit/reference/UISearchDisplayController_Class/Reference/Reference.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40008225-CH1-SW4?

Many thanks for an awesome library!

No, you can do this easily yourself.

Usually your carousel is backed by some data. Provide your our search bar and use the UISearchBarDelegate methods to filter your data and then ask the carousel to reload.

For example, you may create a property NSArray *filteredDataItems and in the carousel data source methods check.

if (self.filteredDataItems) {/use filtered/} else {/use regular/}

Conversely, on iPad you can use a UISearchBar and UISearchDisplayController (which is displayed in a popover), and when receiving notification that a result row was selected, scroll to that item in the carousel.
