Czukowski edited comment on NETBEANS-5010 at 2/3/21, 10:50 AM: --------------------------------------------------------------- [~chrizzly] sure, there should be a reasonable tradeoff between performance and ease of use. So imagine if there's no checkbox, and there's some guessing or search results ranking and limiting involved in a search, do you really think it would make the performance that bad? Or do you like the checkbox more because it's more explicit and gives you more control? I'm just a little concerned that having to remember to adjust the correct search mode manually every time, depending on whether I'm looking for a specific file and typing its name manually or copying the path from e.g. git status, doesn't make the whole process as much quicker as it could. was (Author: czukowski): [~chrizzly] sure, there should be a reasonable tradeoff between performance and ease of use.
