>>>>> - The search is just useless really. If you search for something in a project, it would be much more useful if you could drill down into the line in the file where the search instance appears instead of having to hunt through the file <<<<<<
CTRL -> F, change scope to projects, select a project, press find all, and you get a "search" results view which has a tree view which has "next match / previous match" options, and expands to show each match in each file. Click it to go to the exact line of the match. By default the search view opens in the right hand pane. I prefer to move it to the bottom pane (somewhere near the servers view). If you're not seeing it go to Window -> Show View -> Search >>>>> - Searching in the file you are working on/have open is flakey. I always get a “No file open” message and im like WTF? I have to select a different source and then choose the Current document option again for it to work. <<<<<< Have never seen this myself. Has anyone else noticed it? >>>>>> - There is no direction option for the search which means if you want to search the whole document you have to scroll to the top of the document for it to search the whole thing <<<<<< In the CTRL -> F dialog there is a "search backwards" option.... I also like to to enable the "Wrap search" option too >>>>> - You have to open a new search box for every file you have open. <<<<<< I don't see this behaviour at all. CTRL -> F allows you to repeat your search on every open file - select files using the workspace editor tabs and repeat the search in there if you want. Andrew.
