Planning Analytics Workspace: Display "Search Code" Results Directly in Left Pane

Current Situation:

In Planning Analytics Workspace, when using Search Code, the results require opening each process or rule and clicking Next to locate the corresponding line. This makes it time-consuming to determine whether the result is relevant (e.g., if the line is commented out).

When multiple processes are returned, this workflow becomes inefficient because each item must be opened individually.

 

Proposed Enhancement:

               Add the following details directly in the Search Code results left pane under each item name:

                               - Number of matching lines for the search term.

                               - Preview of each matching line containing the searched term.

Benefits:

               - Improved productivity: Eliminates repetitive clicks and navigation.

               - Better user experience: Provides immediate context for search results to quickly assess relevance without opening each process or rule.

               - Consistency with industry tools: Aligns PAW with common developer tools like Notepad++ and IDEs that offer inline previews.
