Searching for Files
The Go To > Resource action in the Navigate menu allows you to quickly find a resource in the
Workbench by searching resource names.
You can also do more complex searches for files in the Workbench. For example, to find all files that end with
.xml:
- On the main toolbar, click the Search button .
- Go to File Search tab.
- Type
*.xml
into the File name patterns field and leave the Containing text field
empty.
(You can use the pull-down list to select *.xml
if it had been previously entered.)
- Finish entering your search options, for example to scope the search to specified working sets, and click
Search.
- The Search view displays the results of your search. Right-click on any item in the Search view to open a
pop-up menu that allows you to remove items from the list, copy search results to the clipboard, or rerun the
search. To open one of the listed files, double-click it or select Open from its pop-up menu.
If you close the Search view, you can return to it later by selecting
Window > Show View > Other...
> General > Search.
