    Hello
    My question may be going for some "stupid" but with Qt Creator, I know how to search, find and replace words but how to get the number of search results....?

    I see that we can select all the matches but where is the number of matches displayed...?

    Hoping to be clear in my questions.

      I assume you are pressing Ctrl + F to start searching?
      Then the "Search" pane pops up. Go to "Advanced search" (or press Ctrl + Shift + F right away) and select a proper area where you want to search (Open documents, current project, all projects.... etc.).
      When you search now, it shows how often your keyword matches in every file (or whatever your selected search area was).

      If debugging is the process of removing software bugs, then programming must be the process of putting them in.

        @Pl45m4 Than
        Thank you so much. It must have seemed simple to some, but I hadn't found it. :)
