FR: Open files from opened folder improvement
iahung3 opened this issue · comments
Assuming the number of files in the folder is very large and the users know exactly which files they want to open, should there be a text box so users could enter the name of the file they want to open? Think a bit further: should that text box allow the users to search for files whose names match the name or the patterns they entered?
if i need to open many files i'll drag the files to ecode.
I will do like you.
@SpartanJ What do you think about this proposal? I want to know your opinion, even though I still think your way works better.
It makes sense as an improvement for the file picker dialog, I don't consider it particularly important.
This is the best way to do it IMO (plus accepting glob patterns):

So you want to implement the feature in the Open File dialog instead? Because in this FR, I'm talking about opened folder. It will be something like a search button next to the build setting button. Click on it and enter the file name or patterns into the text box to search for files in the opened folder. What do you think about it? @SpartanJ
Update: It's fine to implement the feature in the Open File dialog to keep the open folder feature simple. But there should be a way to synchronize the location in Open File with the currently opened folder. See: #255
