Suggestion: Find in this file only

[csalsa]

What I would like is a 'Search in' option to search in the 'current' file only. The option of 'Open Files' is broader than what I want to search.

The workaround is to explicitly name the directory and the file in the textboxes 'Directory:' and 'In Files/Types' respectively. But this is a lot of work where a simple option would do the job.

Use normal find with option List Lines Containing String from top of the actual file. That option is designed for that job, not Find In Files.

Or press key F7 = Edit - Copy File Path/Name, open the Find In Files dialog, set focus to the Files/Types field (content is automatically selected), press Ctrl+V to paste the full file name of the actual file and delete everything in the Directory field and run the search on this listed file.

Hi Mofi

Many thanks for the tip. It work as you said it would.

Still, I like my suggestion better as it integrates into the existing functionality and minimizes the user interface. Just my opinion.
