[oXygen-user] Finding Files in Project View

[Oxygen XML Editor Support (Adrian Buza)]

Hi Eliot,

Open/Find Resource was supposed to be used for this purpose, but it 
became slow since it supports searching in content (default enabled).

If you don't care about the content and only need the filenames, you can 
disable content indexing (that will insure a fast indexing of just the 
file names): Options > Preferences,  Open/Find Resource, clear the box 
for "Enable searching in content".

Now you can use "Open/Find Resource" to quickly locate the file by file 
name. Indexing should finish in tens of seconds (less if you have few 
files) the first time. The second time it will be much faster, so it 
should be transparent from that point on.

Regards,
Adrian
