What does "show source" under "event actions" do?

xinde
Path Finder

Does it show the raw data Splunk indexed for this specific event? or the entire sources?
In my search, when I click "show source" under "event actions", it seems to only show a fraction of the raw data and I am not sure what is the time period of it.

It gives you surrounding events of the selected event from that source and host.
