Hello developers!
When I was working with a lot of scripts and models I was having the issue that it’s hard to find something. Opening the folders, trying to find the script I want.
That’s why I created XSearch!
With XSearch you can find anything anytime!
You just need to press ALT+F and type in what you want!
If you have more thing with the same name, there is no problem,
XSearch can list you 5 instances with the same name!
Tutorial:
Search in workspace.
1, Press ALT+F!
2, You can start typing the name of the instance you want to find!
3, If you have more search results, you can choose between them with
ALT+1, ALT+2, …, ALT+5!
4, If you found what you want, just press enter or click somewhere out of the textbox!
Search in the current selected instance.
1, Press ALT+SHIFT+F!
the other steps are the same!
This is amazing! Clean UI and fast mechanics! This could definitely be useful. I also love how there’s a BillBoard indicator to the part itself.
I’m just wondering how it handles finding the instance in the workspace. It seems like the script is either updating constantly (every frame) or whenever a key is pressed. Does the script loop through the entire workspace every time?
Well, you don’t need to click in that box, and then typ in your name, find the part you want, select it and the delete the text. You just press ALT+F and type in what you want.
I think ALT+F stand better for find.
And this plugin is also not done yet, I’m making so people can filter instances by class. (example: it will only list parts, etc.)
