The Assets window is able to search containers, as of 2015, but it does not show or search inside the contents of ships. In order to view inside them, right click and Show Contents. A smaller UI window will pop up with a simplified list, which will display fitted modules as well as cargo.

POS living presents another challenge to inventory management, particularly in wormhole space. A Personal Hangar Array has 50,000 m3 of space and does not allow for containers to be manipulated directly inside the array. Assembled containers can be placed, but their inventory tree does not function, and they must be moved to active ship's cargo in order to view or withdraw contents. For POS arrays, filters are greatly more practical unless you have items to "box up".
