Can you please bring " Find in all open tabs " function back ? Would be very handy. Right now it's a pain in the bud doing it manually. Or is there maybe a function a have not found yet.

And even if you don't want to hear it anymore please implement a function to upload a bin file without recompiling. It would be my decision if i use it or not. I knoe that there is a workaround to do that but i would life make so much easier.

Hi @littlewing56.

Arduino IDE 2.x has two separate search features:

  • Per-file search: this is accessed by selecting Edit > Find from the Arduino IDE menus
  • Full project search: this is accessed by clicking the magnifying icon in the "activity bar" on the left side of the Arduino IDE window

So you only need to click that magnifying icon in the activity bar when you want to search all tabs. You will also find that this search has some advanced capabilities that are not available when using the per-file Find feature.

Arduino IDE is a tool for developing Arduino sketch projects. So the ability to upload a binary file is out of scope for the project and such a feature will not be added.

Oh my god. I'm so dumb ......
Thanks a lot for the quick respond.

There is an upload function in the IDE so why is it out of scope to tweak it ?
