Find in current open document

Post by ilovetextpad »

Hi,

It would be handy to be able to do a find/seach and be able to limit the search to only the currently open documents in textpad. If that then returned the results in the Find In Files results it would make navigating around documents pretty easy.

Great product guys!

It is possible to select In all documents when searching using Find. The downside is that the search will only run in the current document. You can select Mark All to put a marker in the margin in all files where a match is found.

Apart from this workaround, I do agree that it would be good to combine this with an output similar to that generated by Find in files. This was also touched on in an earlier thread - http://www.textpad.info/forum/viewtopic.php?p=11328.
