editor-string-search-lines-of-padding

Arguments: ide-configuration

This IDE configuration option specifies the number of text lines that are scrolled into view both above and below a string match in the IDE's editor when a string search is done. This affects commands on the Search menu such as Search | Find Forward and Search | Replace, and allows the user to see additional context around the string match. The default value is 6.

This option can be found on the Editor tab of the Options dialog, and may be modified programmatically with a form such as this one:

(setf (ide:editor-string-search-lines-of-padding
        (configuration ide:*ide-system*))
      4)

This option works by passing the value to the Common Graphics functions string-search and string-replace.
