1: File Retrieval

Sometimes we need to know the files in which the MD5 function is used because of the need to change the bug. However, unlike cs, we can use shift + f12 to find function references,

2: Change Scope

In the figure, the entire solution is selected for our search range. Of course, you can select this range as needed, such as the current window and current project ", or even a disk...
