❖ Quick Search of a Current Selection: Once you select any text in your code all its occurrences within the document will be highlighted and marked on the scrollbar automatically. ❖ Debug Logs:
When debugging code you usually execute Anonymous Apex, perform some actions in the UI or start scheduled jobs which then produce lots of logs for you to go through. In most cases your actions would provide you whatever information you need pretty easily but sometimes you need only some specific logs – with very long duration, very small or very big logs, failed or succeeded logs and so on.
❖ Find and replace:
Find, preview, and replace text as you type in a file or across all your projects.
