Exclusion patteren for searching words in a project

[mahmoodn]

I would like to search for a word in a project and exclude .o .a .so files. However, the following pattern doesn't work and I see matches in library files.

How can I fix that?

@mahmoodn you have to separate them with comma: *.so, *.a.
If you let your mouse cursor over the field it will show you the tooltip explaining it.

Right. Thank you.
