Hi,

Need Search Results Display like Notepad++ find in files

When we search for a keyword in folder in all files. The search result window will be at the bottom. A new Bottom pane will be included at the bottom with search results.

Also, we can navigate to the exact word by clicking any of the search result.

In doc fetcher, current we need to navigate one by one and also navigation seems difficult.

Not only notepad++ displays the results pane but also the previous search results pane as well. Attached the image for your kind consideration.

Please consider this.

Thanks.

    Hi,

    the DocFetcher project is currently inactive, so no new features will be added in the foreseeable future, only bugfixes. In addition, the above search result feature would require a major rewrite of substantial portions of the program, so it will not be considered anytime soon.

    Best regards
    q:-) <= Quang

    regarding major rewrite of substantial portions of the program. Is it possible to get help from other contributors for the new feature requests? I think the feature will be liken by most of them

    I don't think you will find anybody who is knowledgeable enough about the matters involved (Lucene search engine, SWT GUI), and who would also want to put in a lot of work for free.
