Add dropdown history to the "in" field of the Quick Search dialog window

Open mplukas opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

It would be very helpful if the Quick Search dialog window (Ctrl+Alt+Shift+L) kept a [short] history of the values used in the "in" field and allowed to select from it (similar like "File name patterns" field in the regular Search window (Ctrl+H)).

Will you contribute such PR?

Hey, you might want to look into the HistoryTextWrapper class. By re-using it, implementing this should be ~very easy~ doable. The plan: replace the input box in the quick search with that HistoryTextWrapper class or something similar.

Great. You are one of the students from CodeDays, aren't you?

Much success on this task and don't hesitate to ask for help if you need any.

Because I did not hear anything anymore and did not know if this is still worked on, I implemented the feature here: https://github.com/eclipse-platform/eclipse.platform.ui/pull/2541 @HannesWell @Wittmaxi @jukzi Would you like to take a look at the new PR? 😅
