Bugtracker. The same place where bug reports go.
Found it, I thought I had the wrong place because it showed the
Free-Pascal bug tracker but then I saw that one could change the
tracker via a small dropdown selector...
Anyway report added: http://mantis.freepascal.org/view.php?id=17603
Thanks.
A few hints for you, where to find some of the other features, you seem
to be missing:
1) Select a block which has ragged left limit (some lines in different
positions)
2) Use Ctrl-Shift-u repeatedly until the block is at the left edge and
all lines now start in column 1.
3) Use Ctrl-Shift-i repeatedly to move the block to the wanted position.
This does not work in Lazarus.
Only by activating the Tab to move blocks in editor configuration is
it possible to move blocks of text, but only to the right of the
original position.
Go to menu -> enviroment -> options -> Tree: Editor / Key Mapping
In the edit box on top enter "indent" => you should see 2 entries (from
the "Text selection commands" (hint: they act on selection, thats why
they are in this group)
"indent block": ctrl-i (without shift, but you can change it) / ctrl-k,i
"unindent": crtl-u / ctrl-k,U
Using Shift-TAB does nothing, except if it is entered immediately
after TAB, when it backs off the indentation just done by TAB.
Notice that it seems totally impossible to move any block *left* of
the original position, which totally breaks the procedure outlined above.
It has been suggested that it is caused by not using TAB as
indentation, but this is very hard to prove since Lazarus does not
show any whitespace difference...
same option dialog, Tree: Editor / General / Misc: "Show special
characters"
Tabs and spaces are shown.
Also on Editor/General : "Cursor skips tabs" (in cursor section) contols
if the cursor can be in the middle of a tab.
