Searching file while typing.

Post by *mivi71dk »

I have my TC set to locate the filename I am typing.
I have version 7.57a.

Until this latest version it just located the file.
Now it will ONY display the file that matches.
I would like to switch back, so it will just locate.

How to?

You have probably pressed Ctrl+S (enable filtering) by accident. Is that what you mean?

No - I can see that CTRL+S will open the dialog to search a file.
This comes up automatically when I just start typing. As I have set in setttings.

But whereas it before just located the nearest match, still showing all files, it now only displays matching files.
It would like to change so it always shows all files and just locate the nearest match.

Yes, Ctrl+S shows the quick-search dialog, but if you then press it again, it will enable/disable filtering of results (notice the state of the icon in the quick-search dialog).

mivi71dk, read about QuickSearchAutoFilter key of wincmd.ini (help section 4.b), it may be useful if you wish to always disable filtering on TC start or disable filter at all.
