I have a project(or what I’m assuming is a project, it has a .™_properties in its root folder with projectDirectory = '$CWD’ in it) and no matter what i do i can’t make Find in Project… find anything, i type a search query that i know exists in the project and it returns nothing.

Maybe I’m not understanding what Find in Project… does or maybe I’m confused as to what or how a project is made in Textmate 2. Any ideas are most welcome.

Two quick possibilities (though there may be others):

1) Are you sure that the selection criteria

In: <place> matching <pattern>

in the Find in Project dialog box are not set in a way that excludes the files you are looking for? For example, try setting this to

In: [Project Folder] matching *

2) The setting

excludeInFolderSearch

and possibly other "exclude" settings may be excluding the files you are looking for. See

http://blog.macromates.com/2011/git-style-configuration/ http://wiki.macromates.com/Reference/Settings/

for more info; in particular, note that these may be set in several different locations.

FWIW, I use Find in Project pretty regularly in TM2 and haven't noticed the problem you are describing.

Found the problem, it had to do with the encoding of the file, once i resaved them as UTF8 then find in project… could match strings in them, but this seems inconsistent tho.

If i opened the file i could find in it, if i had the file opened find in project could also find it, so why couldn’t it find it when it wasn’t open, maybe textmate 2 internally converts the file to UTF8 when it opens it and find only works on UTF8?

Yep, they are all correct and still no joy.

I’ve searched thru my entire home folder for every .tm_properties and there is nothing there excluding this file pattern, I’ve tried to change the filename ending to something else and no luck. By chance i had a sp.sublime-workspace file in there and i can search that one. If i open a file then find in project finds a match in that one.

As i said, i have other projects were find in project works fine, just not this one and i can't for the life of me find a good solid reason for it, here is the weird part, at the bottom of the find in project dialog it actually says ‘No result for “blaah”. (searched 255 files in 0.6 seconds) so it seems it is searching the files but not finding the string, a string i know is in there. These are a sql files it is searching thru.
