Find in Path with the Navigation Bar

Use the Navigation bar and Find in File together and be faster than all of your team members.

The Problem

Do you need a fast way to find files in a path, without disrupting your flow? Perhaps you've closed the Project tool window and need to find a file somewhere in the project tree?

The Solution

You can invoke Navigate | Jump to Navigation Bar ⌘↑ (macOS) / Alt+Home (Windows/Linux) to temporarily re-activate the Navigation Bar. Once you use it, the window disappears.

Navigate to the target, and invoke "Find in Path", ⌘⇧F (macOS) / Ctrl+Shift+F (Windows/Linux), from the keyboard.
