Any idea as how to translate the above phrase? I am afraid there is not much context provided. It's a translation of strings for a website.
Thanks again! :)

Sometimes in website translations, the preceding and following strings can give a hint of the context.

dra för att söka

It sounds like a slider on a web site: "Dra för att söka" or "Dra i för att söka".
Example sentence:

Drag the slider to seek new stations/Dra i skjutreglaget för söka efter nya stationer.

Hur skulle man säga motsvarande på svenska? "dra för att söka/sökning" ger få google-träffar.
"Tryck på positionsindikatorn och för den för att söka..." ??
