Search Results are no longer grouped by folder?

Hello Sam,

In IDEA 7, the search results from a 'find in path' are grouped by the
folders the files reside in. In IDEA 8 (Diana 9008) they are not.

Is this just a config option I'm missing?

For me results look the same in 7 and 8. I just see that files in source
roots are shown under packages, not directories, so files like
source-root-1/descriptor.xml
source-root-2/descriptor.xml
are shown in results together under "default" package. Again, this is the
same in 7 and 8, but may confuse. If a file is not under a source root, its
directory is shown.

Alexander.

Alexander,
Please see attached screenshot... 8 on the left, 7 on the right.
I cannot get group-by-folder under any scenario in Idea 8 ... source directories or otherwise.
The screenshot for 8 is for a ruby project but I can't get folders for a search in a java project either.

Strange, for me directories are present.

FYI ... Have moved to RubyMine 472, and the folders are present.
As you said ..... strange. Perhaps if I reinstall IDEA 8 the folders will appear for me.

Just as an update to this...
I'm am now using #9732 with Ruby Plugin 2.0.225432
I do not have the lack-of-group-by-folder issue upon clean install, only when I import my settings jar.
So ... I assume there must be something amiss in that jar which prevents me from grouping by folder.

I am attaching my settings jar to try out for yourself.

I cannot explicitly say that this has anything to do with the Ruby plugin but I have not had this issue with Java projects in IDEA without the Ruby Plugin.

Thank you, I've got it.

Find results window has an option (controlled by toolbar button): "Group by packages". This option affects both search of usages (e.g. in Java code) and search in path / files (of a string occurrence). The problem is that the toolbar button is shown only for Find Usages results. In search in path results it is not shown, but works! I didn't know about this speciality.

You have to run Find Usages for any element. Press that button on the toolbar. And then perform the search in path you need. Please try.
