@derba You can - under the "Project" menu there's "Find in project files" which always uses the project root as the search directory. You can also assign a custom keybinding for it.
I wanted to make it default in Geany in https://github.com/geany/geany/pull/454 but others didn't like it so there has to be a different keybinding for project find in files.
