Code Search

Last updated 1/02/2023

The Code Search tool enables you to search for strings in your code. When you first open the Code Search tool all the IDs for your code blocks will be listed, as you type in a string to search by, Five will reduce the list to only display the code blocks containing the string. The results include the first line of your code where the string is utilised.

The short video below demonstrates how to use Five's Code Search.
