Title: Find file in projects tree
Post by: oBFusCATed on March 20, 2009, 01:12:14 pm

Hello,
I've added a feature to the code::blocks project page/tab in the management pane:
I've added a text control, so the user can enter a text and when he/she hit enter the file that matches the text is selected and shown in the tree below.
When enter is hit again, the next file is selected and shown.

I'll add the patch later, so you can see it and can tell me if I've done something bad or there are improvements that can be made.

I want to make one improvement:
I want to add to the text control some auto-completion capabilities. I want to have a drop-down list with all the files that match what the user have typed.
How can I do that? I've seen that in wx 2.9 there is an auto-completion features added to the combo and the text ctrl, but how to do it with wx 2.8?

Best regards

A similar feature exists: try the "ALT+G"-shortcut.

Alt+G opens a tab with the file found. It is different from expanding tree in project manager and highlighting the file name there. It is wanted feature for me!

After finding the ALT + G feature I've decided that my patch is useless...

I can provide it if you are still interested, but the tree expansion should be done in the alt+g dialog (by adding a checkbox or something similar)

Best regards,
Teodor
