Can I adjust the "100+ matches in X files" from Intellijs "find in path"

Edit: This answer is outdated. You can now set the parameter ide.usages.page.size to increase the number of displayed findings. See RoryGS' answer for details.

Old answer:

Currently you only have the option to hit the Open in Find Window button (in the bottom right). But there is an open issue for IntelliJ to change this limit: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-16377 https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-157855

My guess is that you want to see more than 100 matches in the preview so that you can easily skim through the search results, including the context of the lines before and after each occurrence. You can get the same effect, with more than 100 matches, by turning on the Preview Occurrences mode after finding all results by clicking Open in Find Window.

Thanks to "Dmitry Jemerov" from JetBrains/IntelliJ for a update on this old topic.

Dmitry says

"In 2021.2 the limit is configurable in Settings | Advanced Settings | Maximum number of results to show in Find In Path/Show Usages preview"

If you don't have that version then the below still applies.

You can set ide.usages.page.size - IntelliJ Registry option. (Help | Find Action... type Registry and set the value in dialog):

This has helped me a lot for large project refactoring.
