Looking at the IDE, I find the "new" bar on the right of SynEdit
useful but I wonder whether the developers would consider putting a
digit marker rather than a rectangle to mark the position of a
bookmark? That would allow a quick keyboard jump, and would also
give an easy indication of what bookmark was on which page when
multiple windows were open.
Nice idea.
The other possible enhancement would be putting bookmark markers on
the page tags, but I'm assuming that implementation of those is buried
deep in each widget set. Might be feasible to use some of the special
circled-digit Unicode characters: not as pretty as the coloured
markers, but adequately functional.
yes.
Eventually this may become a custom drawn pagecontrol....
What I had thought to be useful (just a draft of the idea, details still
may ripen):
- A window that list s all the bookmarks, also shows the line of code,
and if available the name of the enclosing function.
- This window could provide room for more than 10 "remembered" locations
(10 can have a shortcut, and are bookmarks)
The "overview gutter is a big piece of unfinished work. All those
thinks should be configurable. But I hawe not found the time to
continue on it for a long time now. In is still on my list though.
Running Lazarus tunnelled over SSH I'm finding that scrollbar
operations tend to "run away" with unintentional repeats on occasion,
which means that an overview of where bookmarks and recent changes are
works out quite nicely :-)
The part that I like really is to see where the implementation section
starts. That is often where some important constants or similar are.
