How do I search for files in the file list?

Last updated on Nov 10, 2025

Short Answer: Type a filename or fragment into 'Search files...' to filter the file tree, then select the matching files.

Prerequisites

  1. You are on the 'Select files to document' screen

Steps

  1. Click the 'Search files...' field.
    The field is active and ready for input.

  2. Type the filename or partial name; the file tree filters to show matches.
    Matching files are visible in the list.

  3. Check the boxes next to desired matches and click 'Generate documentation'.
    Selected files are queued for documentation.

Troubleshooting

  1. Search returns no results.
    LikelyCause: The search term doesn't match filenames or the active filter/branch excludes those files.
    Action: Clear the search, broaden your search term, or change the file filter/branch.
