In the "Lookin" field, is there a way to use workspace relative paths?
<Workspace>\src\foo\bar
doesn't work.
Ideally, filename completion would continue to work.
-
Definitely no support for this yet.
Too bad there isn't an alias escape sequence for the workspace path. Then you could define an alias (like wp) and press Ctrl-Space to get the workspace path.
-
Try this (from the Look in: field of Find in Files):
workspace<Ctrl+Space>
There are also built-in aliases for "project" and "build".
-
Looks like the alias "workspace" is defined as "%\M_workspace_path%. You can create your own alias with the same or different name.
-
There are also secret built-in aliases for project directories using just the project name (assuming the project is part of the current workspace). For example, if you have:
topdir/wacky.vpw
topdir/src/crazysauce.vpj
topdir/include/incadincado.vpj
topdir/help/me.vpj
me<Ctrl+Space> will expand to "<topdir>/help"
