WebStorm/PhpStorm exclude file from search everywhere

Question

When I search everywhere I would like to exclude JS and js.map files from the search results. ( I am using TypeScript ). My expected behaviour is to have these files omitted from Search Everywhere.

Yes, I can mark the files as plain text, but that's cumbersome on a per file basis.

I have used scopes:

I have researched these links:

• PHPStorm exclude files by mask from indexing
• How to exclude file from PhpStorm global search (Ctrl+Shift+F)

What am I missing? Can this be done?

Answer 1

You can exclude particular directory from your project. Go:

Settings > Directories

after that select desired directory and press "Excluded" button.
