i’m messing with the weather demo, so i want to find where the ds.getManifestObject() function is called. The project search does not seem to do that.
Hello Mikey,
This one is not available in Qodly. I will declare it as a feature request.
Best regards.
You’re right. Effortlessly searching for functions and objects would be extremely helpful.
ds.getManifestObject() is called when the home page is loaded.
Go to Settings → Application and examine which WebForm will initially open. The Application link may look disabled or almost invisible, but clicking Application makes it clearly visible.
You should see:
Then, open for editing the home web form.
Follow these steps with the home web form displayed for editing.
- Summon the Contextual Panel (found at the bottom of the web form.)
- The
Contextual Panelhas two side sections:Select your EventandActions. - The first action is a function that calls
ds.getManifestObjectand assigns the result to the objectmanifest.
thanks, jeremy.
i was asking the question more generally, too, since there are calls to various functions bound to objects, as well in classes. for example, i want to stick the capitals object into a table, and rename the attributes. that requires quite a bit of searching to find all the things that have to change.
We agree with both of you, searching function calls in a webform (or more) would be wonderful.
We already discussed this a lot internally, we have this in our roadmap.

I have found two bugs related to this in 0.14.3:
- in the search box, if i type a function name, and include trailing parentheses, the studio window goes blank.
- if i begin a search (omitting the parentheses), and then delete it, the entire project tree unfolds.
it’s been a while.
today, with b4, i had to go find my singletons and rework them. since we don’t have this feature, i had do to a bit of searching…
and it would be nice to get both of these fixed
