Screenshot without the feature desired.

Open orion.client project.
Search for bootstrap.js

Excepted: the file bootstramp.js
Actual: there is no where to search for file names

But imagine just before New File, a box prompting "Search File Names"...

Ctrl+Shift+F? Are you just suggesting we add a button for it?
Comment 2 John J. Barton CLA 2012-03-23 16:20:45 EDT
Thanks. 

I'm suggesting you have the box embedded in the UI so I know it even exists.
Comment 3 John J. Barton CLA 2012-03-28 19:15:15 EDT
Plus the search seems to work at the workspace level not the level of the navigator I am looking at.

We can use the "search scope" from global keyword search  and get the scope free from searchClient.
There are several pages using search scope now, basically they are pages that have breadcrumbs. When these pages are loaded, a search scope is burned to the searchClient. I gave it a quick try and the file search worked great on that scope.
But my concern is that user may not want this kind of scope in other pages.
E.g., in editor page when you search for a file you may want to files that are out of its containing folder. If this is true then we want two scopes now: one for keyword search and one for file search.

Bug 371279 addressed that CTRL+H does not want that scope from the editor.
As discussed in today's call we may want an option in the open resource dialog so that we will default the scope to a sub folder and user can uncheck this scope.
I will come up with a screenshot later.

Comment 8 libing wang CLA 2012-03-29 15:31:56 EDT
Just uploaded two options of the mockup.
But again if we ONLY talk about finding files in navigator(adding commands visually and scope down the search), we can ignore the mockups.

Triage in 2.0M1.

Not planning anything here.
