问题
Does anyone know how to copy all the lines in the Visual Studio "Find Symbol Results" window onto the clipboard? You can copy a single line, but I want to copy them all.
I can't believe that I'm the first one to want to do this, but I can't even find a discussion about this apparently missing feature.
回答1:
Here is some code that uses the .Net Automation library to copy all the text to the clipboard.
Start a new WinForms project and then add the following references:
- WindowsBase
- UIAutomationTypes
- UIAutomationClient
- System.Xaml
- PresentationCore
- PresentationFramework
- System.Management
The code also explains how to setup a menu item in visual studio to copy the contents to the clipboard.
Edit: The UI Automation only returns visible tree view items. Thus, to copy all the items, the find symbol results window is set as foreground, and then a {PGDN} is sent, and the next batch of items is copied. This process is repeated until no new items are found. It would have been preferable to use the ScrollPattern, however it threw an Exception when trying to set the scroll.
Edit 2: Tried to improve the performance of AutomationElement FindAll by running on a separate thread. Seems to be slow in some cases.
Edit 3: Improved performance by making the TreeView window very large. Can copy about 400 items in about 10 seconds.
Edit 4: Dispose objects implementing IDisposable. Better message reporting. Better handling of process args. Put window back to its original size.

// This program tries to find the 'Find Symbol Results' window in visual studio

// The Find Symbol Results window uses a TreeView control that has the class name 'LiteTreeView32'

// Use TOOLS -> Spy++ to determine the class name.

// After compiling this code into an Exe, add a menu item (TOOLS -> Copy Find Symbol Results) in Visual Studio by:
// 1) TOOLS -> External Tools...
// (Note: in the 'Menu contents:' list, count which item the new item is, starting at base-1).
// Title: Copy Find Symbol Results
// Command: C:\<Path>\CopyFindSymbolResults.exe (e.g. C:\Windows\ is one option)
// 2) TOOLS -> Customize... -> Keyboard... (button)
// Show Commands Containing: tools.externalcommand
// Then select the n'th one, where n is the count from step 1).

I solved this by using Macro Express. They have a free 30-day trial which I used because this is a one-off for me. I wrote a simple macro to copy all of the Find Symbol Results, one line at a time, over into a Notepad document.
Sequence: * Repeat (x) times (however many symbol results you have) * Activate Find Symbol Results window * Delay .5 seconds * Simulate keystrokes "Arrow Down" * Clipboard Copy * Activate Notepad window * Delay .5 seconds * Clipboard Paste * Simulate keystrokes "ENTER" * End Repeat
回答3:
Had the same requirement and were solving this by using a screenshot tool named Hypersnap which also has some basic OCR functionality.
回答4:
If you can encode your symbol as an expression for global Find, then copy-pasting all results from the Find Results window is easy.
eg finding all references of property 'foo' you might do a global find for '.foo'
回答5:
I'm using Visual Studio 2017 (Version 15.6.4) and it has the functionality directly. Here's an example screenshot (I hit Ctrl+A to select all lines):
The text output for that example is this:
Status Code File Line Column Project
Console.WriteLine(xml); C:\Users\blah\Documents\ConsoleApp1\Program.cs 30 12 ConsoleApp1
static void Console.WriteLine(object)
Console.WriteLine(xml); C:\Users\blah\Documents\ConsoleApp1\Program.cs 18 12 ConsoleApp1
Console.WriteLine(xml); C:\Users\blah\Documents\ConsoleApp1\Program.cs 25 12 ConsoleApp1
回答6:
I had the same problem. I had to make a list of all the occurences of a certain method and some of its overloaded version.
To solve my problem I used ReSharper. (ReSharper -> Find -> Find Usages Advanced).
It also has a very nice tabulated text export feature.
回答7:
From my previous experience and a few tests I just did, there is no built in feature to do this.
Why do you want to do this? Why do you want to copy all of the references to the clipboard? As I understand it the speed of these features would make having a static copy of all the references would be relatively useless if you can generate a dynamic and complete copy quickly.
You can always extend visual studio to add this functionality, see this post at egghead cafe.
回答8:
Hey Somehow you can achieve this in another way,
Just 'FindAll' the selected text and you will be able to catch all the lines
回答9:
Visual Studio Code works as a browser. it is possible to open the developer tools and search for that part of the code
Menu: Help > Toggle Developer tools
write the following instructions to the developer tools console:
var elementos = document.getElementsByClassName("plain match")
console.log(elementos.length)
for(var i = 0; i<elementos.length;i++) console.log(elementos[i].title)
and you can see the match results.
Now if you can copy the results
