How to search files in loaded scripts

Post by mbpcmeo » Mon Jan 05, 2015 2:12 pm

Hello

When using Qt Script Debugger, a lot of scripts are loaded as shown in the attached file. I would like to know if this is possible to have some ordering, or searching functionality to quickly find a script ?

Thanks,

It might be easier to look at the scripts on the file system to locate a particular script, for example using Finder.
Under Mac OS X Finder, you can use the search functionality at the top right to search the scripts folder for a script with a particular file name or search for content.

You can find the scripts folder as follows:
- Locate the QCAD.app application bundle using Finder
- Right-click or Ctrl-Click on the application icon and choose 'Show Package Contents'
- Open folder 'Contents'
- Open folder 'Resources'
- Open folder 'scripts'

To make the search work, you might have to copy the scripts folder to another location on your disk drive.

Finally, you can also browse scripts online through our source code repository at:

I mean the navigation inside the "loaded scripts' window :) like the SideBar in some IDE
