Re: Checkmark denoting current doc prevents knowing if the doc is dirty

2018-08-03 Thread Barbara Snyder
Unless I'm in a project, I never see the arrow to all open files, because I have the setting to always open files in a separate window, which is how I prefer to work. (So many variables to explain our different experiences!) I never noticed the dot-in-red-dot at upper left mentioned in another

I think the difference is whether you have one document or multiple documents per window. The dots Simdude is seeing are in the sub-menu, which lists the documents in the selected window. If the window has only one document, there is no sub-menu, and BBEdit only has room for the active-window

Thanks, Chris. I didn't know about the Windows palette and now will keep it open at all times! Also I gave it a shortcut, as you suggested. I guess I don't understand why the Windows dropdown menu couldn't use the same implementation (highlight + dot). Anyway, I'll go through the proper

Simdude, I don't use projects BTW so don't see that right-arrow. I'm just talking about on the main Window dropdown. If you see a dot on the main window dropdown for the active doc, can you post an example showing that? Sounds like I'm just making this up and if so, I'll enter a feature

OK yes I forgot about the checkmark, but other people are saying that if a doc is dirty, even if it's the current doc, they are seeing the dot. I am not. Kerri said she is using 12.2. Can I get ahold of that? Is it at all possible that there is some setting that has affected this behavior?

Sorry Barbara. Hit Post before I finished. I switched back to index.md (the dirty file) and the dot remained even though it was the front (active) document. i.e. it didn't switch the the checkmark like your example. -- This is the BBEdit Talk public discussion group. If you have a feature

Checkmark denoting current doc prevents knowing if the doc is dirty

2018-07-31 Thread Barbara Snyder
I could have sworn that I was always able to see the dot marking a dirty doc when looking at the Window dropdown. Today I noticed that there is a checkmark next to the document I am in, which is nice and which I don't remember being there before (but maybe I just forgot), but the checkmark is
