In Delphi 7 when i ran multiple Find In Files searches each search result would generate a separate tab. We've since upgraded to Delphi 2010 and now when i run multiple Find In Files searches each time one is fired off it replaces the tab instead of creating a new one with the results of the successive search. Is there a way to get the old functionality back, a setting somewhere?
Thank you,
Brian
In the Find in Files dialog, there is an option "Display results in separate tab". Make sure that is checked, and the behavior should be what you want.
You can look into using a vertical grid for that. DevExpress' VerticalGrid can duplicate that functionality.

I apologize if asked/answered - but I truly did search....
In excel CTRL+Shift+L is not working; when I press the key sequence and the cursor spins and comes back without having accomplished turning on the filters or anything visible to me. This is the only shortcut that is not working so I did not know if I redefined it - but could not tell what it was currently defined as, I had the IT guys repair the install - All with no luck...
I would love to debug what CTRL+Shift+L does when I hit it - but could not figure out if that was possible...
Totally at wits end - - any help would be greatly appreciated.
For me it was Radeon Overlay which had the same hotkey for longing performance metrics. Just end whichever other programs you have running and see after each one if it gets fixed. Or try running excel in safe mode (Run excel.exe /safe) maybe the issue is an add-in.
Please try Alt+A+T. Hope it solves your problem.
I don't have 2010, but I do have 2013 and Ctrl+Shift_L works in 2013. Couple of things I can think of - one, do you have hidden cells? Second, when you hover over the filter button in the ribbon, does it still show Ctrl+Shift+L as the shortcut? Also, when I press that key combination, the ribbon indicates that the spreadsheet is currently filtered, does yours show that after you've pressed the shortcut?
I know the question is pretty old, but I ran into the same problem in the past couple of days and it was very frustrating.
It turned out that I had assigned the same shortcut to a Macro and completely forgot about it. The workbook containing the Macro was always open in the background and it prevented even other workbooks, without the Macro, to use the Filter shortcut.
So if you still have the problem, try checking if any of your open workbooks have macros and if so, check to see if ctrl+shift+L is assigned to any of them.
Hope this helps.
Another possibility... If you have two tabs selected at the bottom of the page it will not let you use that shortcut. You will not even let you use the sort/filter button at the top of the toolbar. You will be able to tell if you have two tabs selected by looking at the bottom of the window at the tabs. Click one of them or off of them to go back to only having one selected.
I didnt check for excel but for sublime yes ..
tried https://www.nextofwindows.com/troubleshoot-control-shift-l-stopped-working-in-sublime.
may be this works for excel too, as amd's radeon is using ctrl+shift+l hot key.
Same issue, turns out radeon software is using the same hotkeys for performance logging. Resolved it via:
Open Radeon Software (usually it's on the hidden icons on the taskbar)
Go to Hotkeys tab and reassign a new hotkey or just delete it
Do you have slicers connected to the table? If so, you need to delete slicers first.
I am trying to use two different textareas displaying the same code, but with one master, and another copy. In the copy textarea, I would like to highlight changes, something similar to what GitHub offers when we do some changes.
I was wondering if this is possible or if someone did something similar before. Any advice is welcome.
The CodeMirror Merge add-on is exactly what you want. See the demo, which matches your description.
At first I thought you wanted a separate diff, displayed in a div below your textareas rather than inside one of the textareas, and I wrote the following answer. It may still be useful.
Check out the google-diff-match-patch library, used by the CodeMirror Merge add-on. It’s not a drop-in solution, but it looks like you could use diff_main to get a list of original and changed text, and then display that yourself. The library also provides diff_prettyHtml, which outputs example markup for the diff.
Mergely is another option that produces very nice visual diffs using CodeMirror and is distributed under the GPL, LGPL and MPL licenses. It's GitHub repo is here.
Also Prettydiff which isn't very pretty, but when you click the "execute" button at the bottom you get an interesting visual diff. Not sure if the diff itself is using codemirror or just the two input texts that the diff is generated from.
Simple question, (Easy points!)
In Delphi 2010 (with updates 4 and 5) "Find in Files" shows the results with the tree closed for each file. I have to click on a plus-sign to open each file's results.
I know there's a way to configure the IDE to automatically show the results with all the trees open, but for some reason (fatigue on my part?) I'm unable to find where to set that option.

Edit on year later: I re-asked this question here: Auto-expanding the results of "Find in Files" int the Messages windows and got a good answer:
"[Use the] Group results by file" checkbox on the Find In Files dialog.
Somehow I'd overlooked that! I'm posting this edit so that other readers in the future find it here.
I couldn't find anything like what you are asking about, in the Options. Perhaps you confused that with something else, but maybe I overlooked the option (too).
Anyway, there's a keyboard shortcut, Ctrl+Shift+Numpad +, to automatically expand all the tree items in the Message box tree view (when it is focused). Similarly, Ctrl+Shift+Numpad - collapses them all.
Not directly answering your question; but I was often frustrated by this, until I found the excellent Grep Search that is included with GExperts
It includes an option to 'Expand all matches after searching'. It also fixes many other shortcomings with the Delphi 'Find in Files'. I highly recommend it.
I have to stay away from my MacBook and will use Windows for a while. I missed Textmate's folder view when editing my rails projects. Is there an editor on Windows with the folder view? I know there is the E text editor. But I'll save a few bucks if there is a free (cheaper) alternative, as I won't stay in Windows for long ...
Go with gVim, and when editing a file you can type :edit. to pull up the working directory, and navigate from there. Also you get geek cred for rolling VI!
Have a look at Komodo Edit. Some people are already using it for Rails development.
Netbeans is full scale open-source ruby/rails-editor with a folder-view.
Programmer's Notepad is a very lightweigt open source text-editor, it has a "project"-view (but you have to define the project yourself).
The Zeus Lite programmer's editor has a folders view (i.e. View, Navigator menu) feature and it is also free.
Best one I just found.. "programmers notepad".. It's got different coloring for different languages. (though i always turn that off) and it allows you to map keys..
It also has a hand tree view where you can have "magic folders" that show all the files in a given folder. It is very sleek..
One irk.. to make it so you can have two projects open at the same time, you need to go to options and set the exe to allow multiple instances... I'd have rather seen that as default, but it's easy to fix.
Oh and it's free.
Not that you asked, but bluefish seems to be quite good on linux. Has a similar feel. It's a fast little editor.
emacs has speedbar, diredit mode, other option.
This is speedbar:
I'm using SketchFlow for the first time, and am confused as to why my text isn't showing up in the "Buxton Sketch" font it's supposed to (see image). I just did a repair installation, and it didn't make a difference. In the Text properties, I don't see "Buxton Sketch" as an option, either. I'd appreciate any help.
UPDATE
Everything looks fine in the SketchFlow player (when I hit F5), but not in the designer.
Compared to this:
Proper "wiggly" font http://www.lorenheiny.com/wp-content/uploads/sketchflowwigglystyles.png
I tried downloading the SketchFlow files from a tutorial I had used, and it worked fine. It turned out the difference was that my files resided within a subfolder of a directory I had named "C#" - where I've kept all of my Visual Studio source files for a long time, with no problems (until now). Moving the SketchFlow project to a different directory fixed it.
What makes it even stranger is that the C# directory is 2 levels higher up than the solution's directory, so I don't know why anything within the solution would even matter.
Are you able to create anything with that font? Can you create a textblock and set the text to the Buxton Sketch font?
We encountered this same issue - but found a slightly different solution.
In our case, SketchFlow projects were being in the default location (My Documents\Expression\Blend 3\Projects), and the screens weren't coming up with Buxton Sketch.
The difference we found is that, in our environment, "My Documents" is mapped to a network storage location (H:\Data). What we observed was:
Open the project via My Documents\Expression\Blend 3\Projects. No Buxton Sketch. :-(
Open the project via H:\Data\Expression Blend 3\Projects. Buxton Sketch OK. :-)
Click "Embed" in the Text properties on most "Sketchy" controls to get Buxton Sketch to appear at design time in Blend for MS Visual Studio 2013 (v 12.0.50429.0 update 2)
If you paste items from other sketchflow screens, ensure you paste after you have already added a "Sketchy" control to your screen and don't "Overwrite existing resource with copied resource" when a "Resource Key Conflict" occurs, "Discard the copied resource and use the existing resource" if the resources from your copied items already exist or leave as default and add them.
First, make sure you've started by creating a new Sketchflow Application from Blend 3. Then from within Blend 3 in your Sketchflow project on the toolbar, click the chevron at the bottom of the list (the >>). From there expand Styles and select SketchStyles. From there you should see all the sketchy controls like BasicTextBox-Sketch and ListBox-Sketch. Those all have the sketchy look that you want.
It shows up at design time for me.
