The New search view [message #207873] Tue, 09 March 2004 08:28 Go to next message

Hi,

I have checked the option to use the new (work in progress) search view.
I don't like it and would rather use the old one. However, the option in
preferences stays cleared, but the new search view still shows up.

I will file a bug report about it, but can somebody please tell me how can
I get the old search view back?

Thanks in advance,
Genady

Hi Genady,

I don't know which version you use, but in last week's integration build
there was a problem in SWT with listeners on checkboxes. Maybe that's it?

Best regards,

Jesper

Note that there are separate preferences for file search and java
search. I'm looking forward to your bug reports why you don't like the
new search view ;-)

Oh, that was it - I was looking under the workbench preferences, and
didn't notice the java preferences.

The reason I don't like the new search view is that it doesn't start
expanded, and it shows (sometimes) redundant information.
This occupies too many lines on the screen. On my laptop I work in
1024x768 resolution and the search window is very small.
Maybe it is possible to group the results differently - now if I have
the match in a function, I see (all in separate lines)
the project, the source folder, the package, the compilation unit and
the class name. Thus I first have to expand them all, and only
then I can see the matching methods. This also costs me 5 precious lines
on my screen. I know I can go directly to the first result,
but it's like google's "feeling lucky" ...
Maybe it is possible to group the results differently - for example if a
node in the tree has
only one child, you can display the parent and the child on the same
tree node. Or even further - groups the result by classes,
and display all parent info (that is, project, source folder, package,
compilation unit) on a single line.

it does now.

The latest I-build has buttons to change the grouping. Note that you can
alway switch back to a flat view via the view drop down menu.
