The General Information Panel

Once MakeGlossariesGUI has loaded your auxiliary file and run makeindex or xindy as necessary, information about the glossaries contained in the document will be listed in the panel. First it will list the file path, whether word or letter ordering was specified, the name of the style file, which indexer (i.e. makeindex or xindy) should be used based on the extension of the style file, and the list of glossaries that were defined in the document.

After this, the details of each glossary are listed, including the number of entries found. Remember that you have to use a glossary entry in your document via commands such as \gls, or \glsadd in order for them to appear in the glossary. You can click on the link next to number of entries to see a list of the entry tags and the number of times that entry was used in the document. (Note that if you reload the current file, you will have to close the details window and open it again in order to refresh the information.)

In the entry details window, you can use the search box at the top of the window to search for a specific tag, but note that it is a case-sensitive search. If you can't find the required tag, check that you are viewing the correct glossary, and check that you have used the glossary entry in your document.
