Hi,
as a follow up for:
Search inside schematic in addition 4 the Toolbox
search for items in schematic
module-search within schematic
wouldn't it be great to have a way to search a specific primitive/component name in your schematic?!
The results would display in a list that can be clicked to jump to that component.
This would make it much easier to:
- replace superceeded components
- find a certain problem causing component (like often mentioned on the forum posts)
- find certain structures that needs changes/fixing

Yes it would be nice.
Instantly takes my mind to reaktors right click menu for searching primitives. 😍

+ 1 😉

+1. Excellent idea.

Long overdue...
along with SSE2 & SSE3 support, OSX support, higher-accuracy green data, etc.
I wouldn't mind at least an OSM export as text, then we could atleast find what we want.
ccpurno ·
I must admit that higher accuracy green data is my number 1!
Maybe we can have a poll?
Choices like:
- More accurate green data
- x64 host support
- SSE2/SSE3 support
- OSX Support
- Dev kit
- Search inside osm
Shall we start a thread to define the choices of the poll?

Isnt there already a bunch of threads like that?
ccpurno ·
I guess so..
But I don't see a poll yet..
Shall we start one?
I now have:
- More accurate green data
- x64 host support
- SSE2/SSE3 support
- OSX Support
- Dev kit
- Search inside osm

I would expand this to "- Better OSM interaction (global search/replace, bookmarks, text & picture export)
+ lockable modules
+ better OS interaction (M U L T I T O U C H, mouse wheel, middle+ mouse buttons)
Man, how can you forget all the threads on multitouch? 😉
ccpurno ·
hehehe... I think those were also related to dev kit?
Meaning, if we have a dev kit, we have multi touch??

+1 for search, also within textbox text. i distribute my TODOs all around a schematic in those... the finding again is the problem, yes!

After a day rummaging through an 6 month old file, I realised I need this....
Right click on a wireless link, and select 'Where the hell is the other end of this connection?'

Really this makes old-school programming in text much more superior than GUI-only programming. A good code editor will have "Search-all", auto-completion, & even jump to the routine.

I need this almost every day. Instead I spend hours trying to find em little bastrrds....

search could have optional checkbox: "Search also in labels" - I use to label primitives a lot, do you?

Depends how late in the night it is! 😉
I always start off with good intentions of a nice 'self-dosumenting' schematic with lovely neat links - but it always gpes out of the window when I'm furiously debugging at 3am.
I've found that the best way is to start every session with a big cleanup of the mess I left the night before, hopefully before I've forgotten why I did what I did. Another good idea for a spare uninspired hour is to go through your toolbox and tidy and optimise its contents - most of my 'building block' modules have been optimised many times over as I've learned more about SM.
Acrobat ·
yes, and it depends on the "amount of hurry" too.. but I think that a "search in labels" could be useful
as it will find also words contained in labels assigned to Wireless Links, something that a lot of people would appreciate, I guess. 😉

just search in the labels too, no need for a check box.

i super-agree concerning bookmarks 🙂
Like, when going around many non-parent modules :P
