Free Search-All xtra for Adobe Director
I’ve cleaned up and released a little MIAW xtra that I have found extremely useful called Lingo ScriptHelper. It does two things:
1. Provides “search all” with a results window. You can click on the results and it will open the script window with the search phrase highlighted. Very useful when looking for a piece of code that uses common phrases.
2. Provides a list of all your scripts, and the handlers inside them, along with the parameter variables they use. Very useful for looking up what arguments a handler takes without having to open a new script window.
The screenshot above shows the search results truncated, but if you hover over them with your mouse the entire line pops up as a Tooltip.
Of all the little tools I’ve written, this is by far the most useful one. I left the file unprotected, so you can edit it as much as you want to suit your needs. I’d love to hear what people do with it.
Check out the Lingo ScriptHelper page now!

Awesome, Hanford!
I’ve been wanting something like this for a while now and wondered why it wasn’t already in Director.
Thanks for sharing!
