Hi, it would be very convenient to have a search box, in the side panel, for example in the procedures panel to find the procedure we are interested in right away, I have projects that have dozens of procedures and since in the panel they are not sorted by name but by position in the code, it is inconvenient to search for the procedure we are interested in, or put the option to sort them by name.

So my suggestion is to add a search box in: Procedures,Explorer,Templates and for procedures also the option to sort them by name.

Sorting is an option in the preferences dialog for Procedures. See File → Preferences → ToolsPanel → Procedure Browser → Sort procedures by name.

But nonetheless this could be a useful addition.

At the moment I'm using FindAllReferences for searching. Watch the video (video2)

I never noticed the presence of the option to sort procedures, thanks for the tip, for the search box I suppose in explorer it could be useful

It's easy to miss, I bumped into it by accident, that's why I thought it worth sharing. The one I've always noticed is not being able to do a partial search in the Structure Viewer's tabs.

Thank you I will immediately put FindAllReference in the addons I use in purebasic

You can make a simple tool that using a hotkey or button on the toolbar, the InputRequester input field appears, enter a name, press Enter

Take a look at the tools section here, maybe something else will be interesting.
