drag and drop text not working in Linux

Asher Max Schweigart 12 ár síðan updated by D. Scott Nettleton 11 ár síðan 1
As of the first non-beta release, text drag and drop was added.
It works for me in Windows, but in Linux it does not.
I am running Fedora 17 KDE spin, 64bit.

Support Wayland as a platform.

Ryan Smith 10 ár síðan 0

Wayland will likely replace X11 on most linux distributions in the near future.  Please consider supporting Wayland natively instead of relying on XWayland (X11 running on Wayland).


You may want to look at what the Gnome people have done so far to port their toolkit:

Natural sorting in project view

Natural sorting (i.e. 1, 2, 7, 10, 11, rather than 1, 10, 11, 2, 7) would be a real plus in the project pane.

Saving a new project defaults to an inconvenient initial location for the save dialog

lanzz 12 ár síðan updated by Manuel Meurer 12 ár síðan 1
When you create a new project, add a folder (or several) to it, and try to save it, the initial location in the "Save Project As" dialog is some left-over location from a previous "open file" or "save as" action, which is rarely related in any way to a new project. It would be more useful if the initial save location in the dialog is the first folder added to the project, or a common parent folder of all folders in the project perhaps? As it is at the moment, I usually have to climb up from a deep location inside a very-unrelated other project or start from my home and climb down to the project.

Is there an option to turn off FILES from the sidebar?

jleequeen 13 ár síðan updated by Jon Skinner 11 ár síðan 3
Some people may like it, but I really hate the FILES being at the top of the sidebar, because it's a waste.  I know you can collapse it, but it's really a turn off.  It's open by default, and for me, it serves no purpose.  I know what files I have open in the tab bar.  Is there a way I can turn this off?

Built-in web output tab

farcaller 12 ár síðan updated by Xavura 12 ár síðan 1
It would be very useful to have a tab supporting web output. Mostly what I'm interested in is a python-scriptable webkit container. 
That would allow to make highly customised output, useful in lots of scenarios (take a look on what TM1 does with tests output for rspec, it's pretty amazing).
Additionally it would allow those of us who do web development to have a possibility of "internal" browser for any testing.
And just think about how it could improve the situation with in-editor API documentation.

Why does Windows Install require Administrator privileges?

I'd like to test-drive Sublime, but am unable to install it because it requires Administrator privileges, which I do not have -- only Power User...


Are Administrator privileges truly necessary?

reveal_in_side_bar should scroll the side bar to show the file

Simon Wade 12 ár síðan updated by sand12937 11 ár síðan 3

reveal_in_side_bar should scroll the side bar to show the file. Currently I have to collapse the side bar in order to get it to do this. Also expand all and collapse all for the sidebar would be useful.

Convert encoding on the fly or at least when using "Save As..."

Oktay Acikalin 13 ár síðan Uppfært 13 ár síðan 2
Sometimes I have to convert the character encoding from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8 or others. It would be nice to do this with the currently active view or at least when using "Save As...".
For the in-buffer-variant one could come up with a plugin tho...

<div id = 'example'>

Use KDE file dialogs

Stefan Markusen 11 ár síðan updated by Francesco Magazzu' 7 ár síðan 1

The one element that would improve the user experience on KDE the most is the usage of the native file open/save dialogs.

This is not only about the look, but also about functionality, e.g. favorite folders.


Implementation is straightforward by using the `kdialog` CLI utility.

One project that does this already is Chromium, using the xdg-utils.


Starting point reference: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/codesearch#chrome/src/third_party/xdg-utils/scripts/xdg-file-dialog

Text markers for Folding

greppo 12 ár síðan 0
Vim supports text markers for folding, by default {{{ and }}} demarcate the start and end of a folding region.   These can be nested.  Typically I include {{{ and }}} in comments to mark logical blocks of code or XML.
I would like a means in the Sublime Text API to create nested folds based on a marker string independent of the syntax.

Fixed position for open files block in sidebar

Stijn De Meyere 12 ár síðan updated by Bill Dami 12 ár síðan 2
When you have a long folder tree in the sidebar and you start scrolling down, the "Open Files" bock disappears. It would be nice if this block had a fixed position, as in Espresso on mac, where the tree scrolls under the "Open Files" or Workspace.

This way, people who don't use tabs can still have a quick overview of the currently open files.

Spellcheck only comments

Eduardo Felipe Castegnaro 13 ár síðan 0
Now that SublimeText 2 already has a great spellchecker it would be nice to limit it to comments instead of comments and strings.

Since not all strings will be user visible, but a documentation is always developer-visible, it makes sense to limit the scope of spellchecking.

No print option in Sublime Text2

There is no print option at all in Sublime Text2. I think this is one of the basic feature of any text editor. Notepad has it :D
