Yes

use CTRL+ / then open yourfilename

thanks Ignacio

this is what it does when I press ctrl + /

it goes to the find drop box at top of the IDE (the binoculars)
then, as I type letters it drops and shows me all the previous searched words.

short... ctrl + / goes to the find ,but not open the file.

Hi,
try typing >open yourfilename , I have a solution with 50+ projects so
believe I use it A LOT; it's the fastest way to open a file
