Good day,
is there a way to automatically edit the found words using ctrl + f in sublime, without clicking the found word.
its just extra effort if you'll click the word again even though its already high lighted, using a keyboard key would be much easier specially if your always using the search function.
thank you for the tips.
I don't know if this makes things easier for you, but you can simply press Esc when the word is selected, which will bring the focus back to the editor and you can edit the word, and cycle through the next selections using F3 or bring up the find box using Ctrl+F

This should have been relatively easy to fine out , turns out its not, so actually all i really want is a shortcut with which i can toggle between the text editor and the treeview on the left.
The brackets documentation really don't mention any such shortcut see here.
In Atom text editor for example there is a shortcut ctrl+0 which shifts focus to the tree view , i can't seem to find such a shortcut in brackets though. I love all the features of brackets, but i just seem to be short of this one last shortcut to make my work flow awesome !!
Thank you.

In VS2013, I find it irritating that it jumps wildly through the current source file to places matching my incomplete entry, while I am typing - I would prefer if it did nothing at all until I completed my entry and hit Enter (and if it finds nothing, the scroll position in the file will not be changed).
I couldn't find an option under "Tools/Options..." that looks like it helps there.
Is it possible to do this?
No, there is no user setting for that, sadly.
Instead, however, consider using SHIFT CTRL+F (find in files). Not the obvious choice, but I've started to prefer it as it gets rid of the leaping about and it can anyway be useful to see the list of occurrences before losing scroll position (whether or not it finds anything).
I am not sure what is the best way to word my question correctly in single line. But basically I have seen quite a few video tutorials now where the coder types really fast using some sort of shortcut to fill in the automatic text(prolly intellisense stuff) It looks very similar to Linux command line tab where you only type half of your text and when you hit tab it either fills in the gap or show you the remaining options.
Hope that makes sense.
Thanks
Pressing Ctrl+Space completes the current variable/class you are typing.
Typing things like ctor and then pressing the Tab key twice tells Visual Studio to insert a constructor for you. (Also works with for for a for loop, cw for a Console.WriteLine();, etc.)
For a full list, please refer to the official reference from MSDN.
I believe its Ctrl-Space, which is pretty common among most IDE's
I've been trying out Sublime for the past few days. Long-time TextMate user.
The one thing I struggle with most is finding stuff in a document. I can use CMD+r to find a selector, but what if I'm looking for something else, a comment maybe, or something else?
If I use CMD+f, Sublime will put a box around all of the instances of my search term, which isn't what I want either. Worst, it keeps a box around all of the instances:

I need to "disengage" the find before I can move on.
Is there a TextMate "QuickFind" (Ctrl+s) equivalent in Sublime Text?
I find searching/navigating through a document in Sublime to be really, really frustrating.
After looking for a very long time, I've found it. The Sublime equivalent to Textmate's quick search/find is Find > Incremental Find, or cmd+i.
Now, I'm officially a Sublime convert.
Worst, it keeps a box around all of the instances (see screenshot: http://cl.ly/1T3x0i2L0j2u1a0E0M12). I need to "disengage" the find before I can move on.
To disengage find in sublime text 2 just press Esc key.
On top of using Find as per usual, if a find is for a small amount of characters that would appear 50 times on a page, use the EasyMotion plugin which does that old Vim deal:
You hit the EasyMotion key, hit the character you want to match, then Sublime replaces all visible instances of that character with a letter, number, etc - you then hit that replacement character on your keyboard and the cursor moves to that particular instance of the character you wanted. It's a bit confusing to explain but basically, it lets you teleport to absolutely arbitrary points on any page in 3 key presses.
I find that I am cutting and pasting a LOT when I program. For example, method, variable and class names are things I regularly cut/paste. I do use "ctrl+space" after typing part of a word to autocomplete them or popup intellisense when there's duplicates found.
But just for straight copy/pasting do you guys have any good shortcuts/tricks/tips to use?
I already use these shortcuts as I program but I wonder if I am missing anything?
ctrl+x (with nothing selected)
ctrl+v (with nothing selected)
ctrl+l (with nothing selected)
ctrl+shift+arrowKeys
If I could copy/paste quicker I think I'd be able to write code quite a bit faster.
In Visual Studio has multi-paste.
pressing Ctrl+Shift+V allows you to paste any of the 10 last things you cut/copied.
Install and learn ViEmu.
I have more of a hardware solution. On my MS 4000 keyboard I have the back and forward buttons right under the space bar bound to copy and paste respectively. This actually makes copying and pasting much easier than I thought it would when I first did it.
I use ClipX, which gives you system-wide multi-paste. You can paste any of the last [configurable number] of things in your clipboard. You can also save "favourite" items, which stick on the list forever.
Shift + Page Up/Down to select everything below/above the cursor.
If you're not using ctrl+shift+arrow to select whole words/lines, then that can help a lot.
