Using IntelliJ IDEA. I have a find that returns hundreds of instances of lines of code I need to change across maybe 150 files.
After each change, I'm having to hit ctrl-shift-f to bring back up the file search, wait for the new search, then click on the next occurrence to repeat my change.
This is a drag, to say the least. It would be helpful if there was a way to go to the next occurrence of find in file. F3 doesn't get it done. Is there really not a way to do this?
There are two ways that come into my mind:
if you use the Find window to replace something, you can put the replacement code in your copy/paste buffer and navigate with the down/up key in the search results to replace in the lower code preview pane of this window
if you show the results using "open in find window", you can use the up/down keys or the shortcuts Ctrl+Alt+Up / Down key to navigate between the results there.
