Navigating in a JSON, howto?

Martin Hoppe

Hello nice girls and guys and inbetweens!

I am using the great JsonToolsNppPlugin and now gave up finding a solution for this, so now I am looking for help here,

Using the Plugin I can use the command “Path to current position”, which copies the currently selected path to the clipboard, like this:

.Project.UnrealUnits[1].Units[3].Rooms[3].SubRooms[8].PropertyGroups[10].SubGroups[13].Properties

Now my question is: How can I use such path to quickly navigate to a position? I miss a command like: “Goto to Path”. Anyone seen that?

Thank you so much!

Open the tree view and paste your path after the @ symbol in the query box. When you select a node in the tree view, the caret will automatically snap to its position in the document.

I am the JsonTools maintainer, and thus the best person to direct such questions to.
