in the current function scope.
• <Current Project> - Select this setting to only search in files that are in the current project.
• <Current Workspace> - Select this setting to only search in files that are in the current workspace.
• < Extension Tag Files> - Select this setting to search all extension-specific tag files for the indicated
extension. This may also include your workspace tag file.
• Specific tag files - Select one of the specific tag files listed to limit search to that file.
• <All Tag Files> - Select this setting to search all tag files for all languages.
• Search Options - The search options can be expanded or collapsed to save space.
• Match case - When selected, SlickEdit Core uses a case-sensitive search to find symbol matches.
When this option is not selected, SlickEdit Core uses a case-insensitive search. When this option is
in the neutral (mixed) state, SlickEdit Core first searches for case-sensitive matches, and if none are
found, attempts to perform a case-insensitive search. Note that for case-insensitive languages, this
may have no effect.
• Match substring (slower) - When selected, SlickEdit Core searches for the specified string within
the available symbols. For example, finding all symbols containing the word "order," not just those
that begin with "order." Selecting this option causes the search to execute more slowly.
• Use pattern (slower) - When selected, SlickEdit Core interprets the search string as a regular ex-
pression or wildcard expression. This can result in slower search times, since SlickEdit Coremust test
every symbol in the tag file against the regular expression.
• Filters - Use filters to restrict the search to certain types of symbols. The filters are the same the
ones available on the Outline view. See Outline View for more information.
• Buttons - The following buttons are located at the bottom of the view window:
