Hi,

Do you mean if you search through the "Search Results" ?

[artacademy]

Yes! Thank you for your answer

[SGaist]

There's the cross at the right of the search field but I'm not sur that's what you want

[artacademy]

I wanted to delete an entry in the combobox
nex to the lineedit (with the cross) you probably mean.

This is the search results tab:

---

"Scope: " <Combobox>

"Search for: " <LineEdit (with the X)>

<Checkbox> "Case .." <Checkbox> "Whole..." <Checkbox> "..Regular.."

"File pattern: " <Combobox>

I am talking about the last combobox "file pattern"

Well… You have found a pretty good question, it looks like you currently can't outside of edition Qt Creator's configuration file.

You could try looking at the "bug report system":http://bugreports.qt-project.org to see if someone already talks about it, if not you could consider opening a new suggestion

Check into QtCreator.ini hidden file at path /home/user/.config/QtProject/

Find "AllProjectsFind\filters="
Delete assigned values.

:-D

On Windows, the QtCreator.ini file is located:

• C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\QtProject\QtCreator.ini

Look for:

• FindInFiles\filters=
• AllProjectsFind\filters=

Success when removing badly formed file patterns entries on Qt Creator 4.3.1.
