[Desktop-packages] [Bug 318517] Re: Word wrapping is not respecting indentation
Upstream issue was closed on 2018-05-26 as "RESOLVED WONTFIX". I'm closing the Papercuts task as any changes need to be made upstream and not in Ubuntu. ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: Triaged => Won't Fix -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gtksourceview3 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/318517 Title: Word wrapping is not respecting indentation Status in gedit: Won't Fix Status in One Hundred Papercuts: Won't Fix Status in gtksourceview3 package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: gedit When wrapping a line it would be awesome to have gedit indent the wrapped line just like the original line.

At least a control button wrap/unwrap in the toolbar would be a great feature, whatever is the fate of the wrapping indentation request. ... or a direct keyboard shortcut hscwftic (hope some coder will find this idea cool :) ) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gtksourceview3 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/318517 Title: Word wrapping is not respecting indentation Status in Light-Weight Text Editor for Gnome: New Status in One Hundred Papercuts: Triaged Status in “gtksourceview3” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: gedit When wrapping a line it would be awesome to have gedit indent the wrapped line just like the original line.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 318517] Re: Word wrapping is not respecting indentation
The following is copied from the Upstream Bug: Ignacio Casal Quinteiro (nacho) [gtksourceview developer] 2012-12-04 17:15:42 UTC Here are some find outs from a quick research that I made today. First of all we need to touch almost all the layers to have this working, so if somebody is brave enough to make it here are the steps: 1) Get the size of a tab \t from the gtktextlayout.c. For this we can either check if there is a way to get it from the pango layout or we could as well move the tab-width property from GtkSourceView to GtkTextView. 2) From the gtktextlayout.c we need to detect the indentation of the paragraph, counting the number of tabs and get the size in a pango scale. 3) For that layout we need to set the indentation level for the wrapped text. For this we can already do it by setting a negative value to the pango layout indent value (i.e set_indent(-20)). Although I think the right thing to do here is to set a new set/get_indent_wrapped_text, which will do the same as the indent value but just for the wrapped text. 4) We need to add a setting into gedit, either in the preferences dialog or at this point it could be easily done with a plugin. (A setting in the dialog I think it would be better though). So if somebody wants to have some fun feel free to go fixing each of those steps, and if you have any question we are like always in the irc channel spotted in the previous comment. ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: New = Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gedit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/318517 Title: Word wrapping is not respecting indentation Status in Light-Weight Text Editor for Gnome: New Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts: Triaged Status in “gedit” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: gedit When wrapping a line it would be awesome to have gedit indent the wrapped line just like the original line.
