Description Vladimir Kvashin 2010-08-20 11:08:49 UTC

It would be fine if in go to type, file, symbol dialogs there waere a checkboxes that allow implicitly specify what kind of search user needs - regexp, camel case, case sensitive.

This would be more convenient for user and this would be also consistent with textual search in projects and files.

Comment 1 Vladimir Kvashin 2010-08-20 11:10:19 UTC

This will also allow to use full-fledged regular expressions, which is sometimes very useful.

Comment 2 Tomas Zezula 2014-07-01 09:44:51 UTC

Adding more options into search is wrong UI design.
Ideally the Go To will be just a line on a glass pane.
