I'm new to PyCharm (and Python) but can't find a way to do a complete search for a word in all my files in my PyCharm project. Every time I do Edit-->Find it keeps searching either in the current file of searches for the word where my caret is located. How does one do a complete scan of all files for a word that I typed?

When I select Find Usages, it tells me to position my caret to a specific word.

On the main menu, choose Edit | Find | Find in Path, or press:

Window or Linux: Ctrl + Shift + F

Mac: ⇧ + ⌘ + F
