Is there a way to quickly find or navigate to a certain program by name in online editing? Search bar gives results only for the already opened programs. 

Best answer by Christian Bristow

You can search a BASIC folder for files with:

  • Connect to UV/UD server.
  • Click on the account folder e.g. XDEMO.
  • Now click on any of the folders e.g "BP"
  • Right-click on the BP folder, there you will see a 'search' option. 
  • Now click on 'search' and enter the keyword you want to search. 
  • After the keyword, press enter to search for it. 
  • Files present in that folder will be searched and listed in the searched panel.
  • Double-click on that file, will open it. 

You can also filter displayed files by using “Configure pattern”. Only folders/files matching the pattern will be displayed.
