Speed search in tool windows

1. Select a tool window, a tree, a list, or a popup.

2. Start typing the item name, for example, the name of a file, class, or field. As you type, a field appears over the tool window showing the entered characters, and the selection moves to the first item that matches the specified string. The matching part of the string is highlighted.

   

3. If several items match the pattern, use the Up and Down keys to move between them. Press Enter to open the selected item. Press Escape to hide the search field.

note

Speed search works only for expanded nodes. It will not highlight matching items in collapsed nodes.
