I agree with Dan. Code folding is very useful since some parts of a class need modification very infrequently. It's not the nb. 1 feature on my list but still very useful. I also don't use the structure view very often. Don't know why but somehow I don't have a need for it.
Another point about code folding: I am one of these people who like their getters and setters in one line if at all possible. The underlying reason is to have simple and infrequently touched code be as compact as possible. Code folding would provide an alternate means to achieve that. My 2 cents. -Thomas > -----Original Message----- > From: Dan Bachelder [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, January 10, 2002 8:50 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [Eap-list] Ariadna feature list > > > I like to fold javadoc and methods like toString, toXML, > equals, getters/setters etc... > > Less code to look at makes scrolling through a file much > easier on the eyes. > > This is the feature I am most excited about on that list.
