Description
David
Full text of description The previous versions of eclipse (3.1 backwards) would allow good keyboard use of the open-resource dialog. e.g. With multiple projects open at once all containing a file called pom.xml, you used to be able to do Ctrl+Shift R // Open resource dialog pom // Selects multiple files in multiple projects Q // Move to first entry for a project with a name starting with a Q Now, since all entries in the list start with pom.xml, then have the project name, this short cut method of moving through files is completely lost. I imagine I am not the only one that this will annoy a lot, and since this is an operation I do a lot (so others probably do too) I think it is worth fixing. Cheers, David. Bug 86973 would solve this problem by supporting path patterns, e.g. "Q*/pom" in your case. |
