Open Resource

Use Open Resource to quickly open files in your workspace. This feature immediately displays the list of files in a workspace that match the search text as you type.

To demonstrate this feature, open any .pro code file. (This example uses the IDL demonstration files, which were imported to the default workspace. You can fine these files in the /examples/demo/demosrc/ directory of the IDL distribution.)

Type Ctrl+Shift+R to display the Open Resource dialog. To find a file, start typing the file name. As you type the search text, the list narrows the choices, as shown in the following example:

Select a resource from the list and double-click on it or click OK. The selected file opens in a new Editor.

Tip
You can also access Open Resource using Navigate → Open Resource.
