Find/Replace Project Scope

Post by cotesystems »

Can you add a "Project" scope option to the Find and Replace dialogs. We often are Replacing a piece of code in all php files throughout an entire project. This would save alot of time so that we don't have to open all the php files before performing replacements.

Thanks.

If the files are all in the same top-folder you can limit the search that way. Same idea, I think. I do it a lot.

My files are rarely all in one folder (most projects are fairly large), but even so - how do you limit the search to all the files in top-folder without opening them all?
