How to get "Replace in Files" to show me ALL files, in a consistent manner?
已回答
In our huge project, I am asked to replace "trace mask". It boils down to searching for a string that starts like "XYZ with "ABC
Now: when I open the "Replace in Files" in IntelliJ (community edition, 2021.2) and put in those two strings, yeah, IntelliJ immediately shows me
100+ matches in 27+ files Or 100+ matches in 35+ files. Or 100+ matches in 44+ files
YES. It is THAT bad. Every time I open that thing, it shows me a different result. Some files show up most of the time, other just here, or there, ... So I carefully go through all those that I want to replace ... it replaces those. Then I open r-i-f again, and I can scroll again. And again. And Again.
WHAT THE F???

Hello,
Please try to use "Open in Find window" button. Will it show the same number of matches?
When I do that, I get the same file count each time. And doing an "expand all" there is "good enough of a user experience"
(definitely better than what VS code gives me).
So, this is a good workaround, but well, it would be better if the replace-in-files would directly be consistent.
Generally this action is for quick preview or for small amount of files (less then 100 matches). For bigger projects it might show results partly.
Then it should absolutely say so somewhere. Or give me a button / checkbox that I can use to "force" a consistent, complete result.
