This is when you bring up Edit → Find → Find in Project… (⇧⌘F).<br>
<br>
For a document search dialog use Edit → Find → Find… (⌘F).<div class=""><br></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Ahh, got it, thanks.</div><div><br></div><div>I've come from an editor where its ⌘F to search, and ⇧⌘F to Search/Replace, which explains why I'm seeing Project search so often</div>

I do not see issues here with folder searching causing beachball and I can abort it instantly, either closing the window (⌘W) or clicking the stop button to the left of the status text.<br>

<div><br></div><div>The reg exp I used was ' ([0-9]){2})'. Its probably because there are some big files in there, or perhaps its just finding so many matches.</div><div><br></div><div>But the lock-up is less of an issue really. I never want to search my home dir, and so it was just a side effect of not understanding how to control scope with ⌘F vs ⇧⌘F</div>
