We don’t want you to spend 10 seconds searching for the right thing on the GUI. We don’t want even 2 seconds.

cmd+P (Macintosh) / crtl+P (Windows). This will open a search box with an extremely powerful fuzzy search. This is probably what I use 100+ times per day.

Similar to the previous one, click cmd + P (Mac), or crtl +P (Windows), and then type >. Now you can type any search term and only settings will be affected.

It’s possible to do the same thing without having to click around. cmd option + Arrow down (Mac), shift alt + Arrow Down (Windows). An extra cursor will be added below.

Cmd shift + (Mac) or crtlshift + (Windows) will select all instances of the text. This is useful in situations such as renaming variables across files.

cmd + G on Mac / crtl+ G (Windows), search for next occurrence. cmd shift +G (Mac / crtl+ shift +G (Windows), search for previous one.
