Goto Anything Recursive Folder Limit?

#1

Is there a limit on how far down a project tree, Goto anything will travel?

I’m trying to “goto” this structure:

/
/inc
	/ajax
		/topdeals
			/topdeals.php

But this file isn’t listed.

Important note, there is also a “topdeals.php” in the root directory.

Anybody know this?

Kinda annoying if this is something I’ve done wrong somewhere. Or misunderstood.

Just tried and works fine on 7 directory deep.
/dir1/dir2/dir3/…/dir7/file.php
ctrl+p -> type file.php -> works.

Goto Anything will search everything that’s listed on the side bar, I assume the file in question isn’t listed there. There’s no recursive folder limit, but the directory scanner may believe it’s seen the folder in question before - check for output in the console. However, I’d be surprised if that’s happening here: it should only ignore the directory if it has exactly the same contents (including sizes and modification times) as another directory already scanned.
