Settings for adding padding around text.

Pedro Murillo 14 ár síðan 0
A couple of settings to add padding around text would be a very nice addition to the existing visual settings. 

It could be something along these lines:

"document_padding_top": 20,
document_padding_bottom": 20,

Please consider implementing this.

Thansk a lot

Scrolling margin

Aleksey Alekseyev 13 ár síðan updated by tomr 12 ár síðan 1
Usually the editor won't start scrolling the text unless you move the cursor to the last visible line and press down (or first visible and press up).

Scrolling margin means that there will always be X lines visible under or above cursor (except at the beginning of the file). So if the cursor is on the (X+1) line from the bottom of the screen, pressing down will scroll the text and move the cursor.

This option would be very convinient, because the user will always have a better context of where in the code (s)he is now.

Search and Replace should allow inserting newlines in the replace section

It should be possible to insert newlines into the "replace" section of Search and Replace

auto-hide/collapse folder pane

Prajwal Manjunath 13 ár síðan 0

In my experience, an always visible folder pane is just taking up precious screen real estate 90% of the time. 


My idea is to have the folder pane collapse to the left, appear when the mouse is positions on the left border for more than half a sec. You can also probably have an options bar at the bottom of the folder pane where a user would be able to set various attributes like "show after X seconds mouse is on left border","disable auto hide", etc. 


This would really help when I have large subtrees of folders, and I'd have to resize the folder pane all the way to the right everytime I wanted to select a folder on the lower levels of the tree, and push it back to the left when I wanted to get back to the code.

Bolder/more caret styles

Ibrahim Tencer 13 ár síðan updated by Tristan Koch 12 ár síðan 2
It is very difficult to see the cursor, especially in vintage mode. "wide" is nice but it doesn't blink.

Scroll horizontally using the minimap

Matt Campbell 13 ár síðan updated by Vachagan Balayan 7 ár síðan 2
A user should be able to use the minimap to scroll horizontally.
The portion of the page in the current view should be aware of width and highlighted on the minimap.

This would be:
  1. Awesome
  2. Really useful on wide documents
  3. Especially helpful when using multi-column layouts i.e currently I avoid multiple columns because it is too much effort to scroll horizontally and word-wrap make the document too long and uncomfortable.
Really hope you can do this

Thanks

Hoisting the outline

Sten Linnarsson 12 ár síðan 0

It would be great to be able to hoist the outline in the editor. For example, double-clicking on an outline marker (those little arrows in the margin) would "zoom in" so that the editor now only contains that section. A bread crumb control at the top (or bottom) would indicate where in the outline you are.


Example: editing a large HTML document, I want to make changes to a particular section under <body><div id="main">. I hoist it, so that the editor now contains only the <div id="main"> and its contents up to the closing </div>. Pressing escape goes up one level in the outline.


Hoisting is sort of the opposite of folding. Instead of hiding a section, it hides everything outside the section. It would work equally well for HTML, XML and code.

quick add next and quick find all to be case sensitive

Paul Tramp 13 ár síðan updated by Ada Chao 12 ár síðan 1

One of the main features is to use Multiple Selections to rename variables quickly. But in java and some other O.O. languages it is important that the features that select them are case sentive.

Highlight folder of the active file in sidebar

Jussi Rytkönen 13 ár síðan Uppfært 13 ár síðan 2
When you are editing a file the name of this file gets highlighted in the side bar, but only if the folder where the file resides is unfolded. Unfolding the folder when you activate the file could quickly get very annoying, but how about just highlighting the folder itself?

I normally work with many projects open in the sidebar and often these projects have files with same names so knowing which project the current file belongs to is crucial. Highlighting the folder would help a lot in this.

"(project) file/name" in title bar

Brian Okken 12 ár síðan updated by Henrik Pauli 8 ár síðan 2

Current set up in ST3 is "file/name (project)"

The problem with that is that minimized windows will chop off the title, and then I only see part of the file path, and not the project.
