RE: [flexcoders] Flex 2.0 Feature Request - Code view splitter

[Sho Kuwamoto]

Hi Graham.   If you follow my steps, you do get multiple views on the same file which update in real time as you type. This is the way that Eclipse is designed to work. If you like, you can also tear off the view and   As far as I know, Eclipse does not support split views out of the box, and while we could add it, there would be significant work involved, which is why we decided to wait until a later version to tackle this.   Thanks,   -Sho   From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Graham Weldon Sent: Tuesday, May 09, 2006 6:16 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Flex 2.0 Feature Request - Code view splitter Thanks for that Sho, Ideally, I would like to to operate as 2 separate views on the same file. This would allow me to make changes in working memory, and see the changes in both panes. I feel that if I attempted your approach, only one of the panes would represent the current working copy, and hence would become out of date very quickly as code is edited. For the moment, I am using dual monitors, with a plain text editor "EditPlus" to view the second instance of the code, as it prompts me to refresh when the code has been changed externally to EditPlus. Is the lack of this feature something that is imposed by the Eclipse base? Thanks. Regards Graham Weldon Sho Kuwamoto wrote: Hi Graham. This isn't a perfect solution, but you can open up two separate editor windows if you like. 1) Right click on the document tab and choose "New Editor" 2) Drag the tab of the newly created editor above (or below) the editor area. You should get visual feedback that indicates that it will be docked in a separate area. Voila! Two views of the same document that can be scrolled separately. -Sho -----Original Message----- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Graham Weldon Sent: Tuesday, May 09, 2006 5:42 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Flex 2.0 Feature Request - Code view splitter Hi all, Not sure where to put this, so I'm posting to the group in the hope that someone will intercept it. I'm hoping that Flex Builder will eventually come with a code window splitter, allowing you to view two parts of the same code file, in separate "split" windows. This feature exists on applications like MS Word, EditPlus, and a whole range of other applications that have a window into the content being edited. This would be really useful especially with a large caringorm framework, all your events defined at the top, and the command initialization at the bottom, its a pain to have to scroll up and down constantly to recall the event names. Thanks.
