[[Image:Activity-VisualMatch15.png|600px]]
On occasion, there is no match. You can test for this condition by clicking the 'search' button. If there is no match, 3 additional cards are dealt as illustrated in the figure above.
===The toolbar===

From left to right:
:(a) The standard Sugar 'activity' button used to access the activity menu, which includes sharing (the latter not yet implemented);
:(b) The 'new game' button used to start a new game;
:(c) The 'search' button used to search the current playing field for a match. If there is a match, you are prompted to "keep looking". If there is not a match, 3 additional cards are dealt.
:(d) The number of cards remaining in the deck is displayed;
:(e) The number of matches found is displayed;
:(f) The number of seconds that have elapsed since the last match was found is displayed;
:(g) The current status is displayed;
:(h) The 'journal' notification button is used to update the journal entry for this activity;
:(i) The 'stop' button is used to exit the activity.
'''Note:''' As shown above, these are the 0.86+ toolbars. In older versions of Sugar, these buttons appear under the 'Project' tab.
