Czukowski commented on NETBEANS-5010:
-------------------------------------

[~emi] thank you for implementing this! I'm sure this feature will be useful to 
many.

I've been testing it in 12.3 beta1 and I'd like to propose a few improvements:
 * if only file name is entered and Search by Folders is selected, nothing is 
found, so it has to be unchecked. Since file name is part of its path, maybe it 
should be able to find it anyway?
 * if path is entered and Search by Folders is not selected, then nothing is 
found, which is correct, but perhaps the search could tell it by the looks of 
the input and use the appropriate search mode automatically?

What do you think?

> Go to File seems to search only by the file name. For example, it takes only 
> a double click to copy a file name including its path from a console (eg from 
> git output), and it's a shame it cannot be pasted into Go to File dialog to 
> open that file just as easily, without removing the path information first.
> Also if there are many files with the same name (eg due to some naming 
> convention), there will be many results requiring some more time to locate 
> the correct one.
> Therefore Go to File dialog should accept parts of file paths as well.
> On Windows, both forward and back slashes should be supported for directory 
> separators.
