Did you know… The power of incremental searching

  • Article

I didn’t know about incremental searching until someone showed me. This is a really powerful searching tool for the current document.

To use

1. Press Ctrl+I (or whatever Edit.IncrementalSearch is bound to)

2. Start typing the text you’re searching for (note: at this point, you’ll see the cursor jump to the next match, highlighting the current search string)

3. If you want to move to the next occurrence of the search string, press Ctrl-I again

4. If you want to search backward, press Ctrl-Shift-I

5. To exit, press ESC

Happy Editing!
