Can't search Selected resources
IIDE 4.5.0 Windows. I select a folder in the C/C++ project, then bring up the FileSearch dialog via the menu but the
Selected resources is gray out. I've discover that it's because by C/C++ project view is in separate windows ( 2
monitor setup). Thus when I switch windows to access the menu it seems to deselect the folder. That doesn't seems like
the proper behavior?

Re: Can't search Selected resources
That would be eclipse behavior. I cannot reproduce it (I have 2 monitors two). Do you actually have 2 workbench windows?

Not sure what you mean by *workbench* windows, but I have the Project Explorer and C/C++ Projects views in a separate
window. I have to do this because the two monitors aren't running at the same resolution.

Re: Can't search Selected resources
You mean you detached the view? In any case it is platform... You can search eclipse forums, nothing we can do at this
point...

That is probably an issue for sales/marketing but given that QSS charges 10 000$ for their product, I expect support for
the entire product as a whole. If I go to the car dealer I don't think "the alternator is build by Torpido
Electronics, nothing we can do at this point" would be good enough. Nothing personal Elena ;-)

Re: RE: Can't search Selected resources
I assume you detach the "C/C++ Projects" view from the main workbench? If you do the main workbench lose connection to
the "C/C++ Projects" view. When you select a resource (like a project) in the "C/C++ Projects" view, that "
selectionChanged" event is not known to the main workbench so when you switch back to the main workbench to select "
Search" it thinks you don't have any resource selected.
In your "C/C++ Projects" view, select the resource and try using the keyboard shortcut "Ctrl + H" to bring up the search
panel, you should see the "Selected Resource" coming back.
This is how Eclipse works, U.I. interfaces are driven by events.

Thanks Andy.
I understand that but I think the goal of the IDE is to make thing simple and logical. IMHO this behaviour isn't. Just
wanted to voice my opinion. But I understand now this forum isn't the place for Eclipse specific comment and post.

Re: Can't search Selected resources
I still don't understand your case. Do you have two workbench windows or
you just extract C/C++ project view as a stand-alone window? I tried
both cases. In the 2-nd one everything works fine, selected resources
are not gray.. Indeed, in the first case if you make your selection in
the C/C++ view that belongs to the 2-nd workbench window, but open
search dialog in the first one, Selected resources are gray. But this is
a correct behavior. Your search dialog is connected to the current
selection, which is in turn connected to the workbench window. This
happens because each separate workbench window is able to have its own
"object in focus".

Alex

It seems I don`t have the terminology right. I maximize the IDE with take one monitor then I drag the C/C++ project
view on the second monitor which create a second window. I click on a directory in that second window then go through
the IDE`s menu to access the search dialog and "Selected resources" is greyed out.

Re: Can't search Selected resources
Yes, it almost doesn't work. And that's correct because selection is
tightly connected to the concept of workbench window. AS soon as you
detach C/C++ viewer, it does not report to workbench window about its
selection. And it makes sense. Imagine you have two detached window,
both has there own selections. Any racional behavior for workbench window?

I see, but who handles CTRL-H? Maybe have the search option appear in the pop-up menu of the C/C++ view. You know what
Alex, I`m ready to move on ;-) CTRL-H is my friend now.

Re: Can't search Selected resources
That's clear. Ctrl-H uses selection from window currently in focus. So
you can click C/C++ View, then press Ctrl-H. If you open bar
menu/toolbar action, C/C++ view loses focus. That's it.
And I think that Ctrl-H is a good reliable friend, you made a good
selection :-)
