Hi, I often have large classes that are bigger than what the source editor can display at once. I'm mainly talking about tiOPF project here. Anyway, I receive patches for large methods and use the IDE 'goto line' command to maybe review or modify a received patch. Again, the IDE only shows me lines of code, I can't clearly see which class I am currently working in. Ctrl+Shift+UpArrow doesn't reveal this info either, because again the class declaration is large and doesn't fit into the source editor all at once.
Is there a way to quickly see what class I am currently in without loosing my current position in the source code? I was thinking of maybe some editor shortcut that could display for a few seconds the classname in the top right corner of the editor and then simply fade away. Is this possible? Is there already something similar in Lazarus IDE or another way of know what class I am currently in? I remember in the VB6 days, there was two edit fields above the editor. One listed the module or class (I think) and the other listed the procedure you were in. So clearly knowing where you are is handy to more than just me. :-) Regards, - Graeme - _______________________________________________ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://opensoft.homeip.net/fpgui/ _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lazarus.freepascal.org http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
