Contextual history backtracking for only selected texts leaving history of other text intact

Clive Watts 11 years ago updated by Cameron Lakenen 11 years ago 1

Let say you have some text

-----------------------------------------------

1| psudo code {

2|  function of complexity 

3|   lots of code that i need to make lots of changes to 

4| }

5|

6| some other stuff that gets edited in between edits

7| of my psudo function

8|

9|


I want to be able to select my psudo code text block and (crtl/cmd)+z only its history leaving the state of my other code intact.


I understand it is a very complex problem to solve but It would be unbelievably useful and a great time saver.

Implement SlickEdit's "complete-more" command

codex 13 years ago updated by John Hurst 12 years ago 2
SlickEdit has a feature which allows one to "continue" auto-completing a matched iine.  For example:

foo->bar()->baz()
fo<tab>

This will complete "foo", but I can hit "complete more" to complete the entire line one word at a time: foo->bar()->baz().  SlickEdit will show me a preview of the matching line, and I can use other keys to cycle between all matching lines to pick the one I want.  A great alternative to cutting and pasting, and one that doesn’t require any navigation.

Each "Open recent" should open the previous last opened

Bill Hunt 13 years ago updated by Jon Skinner 13 years ago 1
I just discovered ctrl-shift-t opens the last closed (awesome!). Pressing it again should open the second-to-last closed. A third should open third-to-last closed, etc. I.e. replicate the behavior in Chrome (ctrl-shift-t is the keystroke for this behavior in Chrome as well).

Highlighting within brackets

Peter Leary 11 years ago updated by Arunprasad Rajkumar 11 years ago 1

Hi there, 

Currently in sublime you get a little marker to show the start and end of any bracket you are within.  () [] or {}

It's handy but when you are in a large file it can be a bit like Where's Wally trying to find the other one sometimes, so I thought it might be nice if you had the option to slightly highlight that section so it's really easy to see where you are.

Just thought this might be kinda cool. 

Thanks

When "finding next", reset x-axis view to 0

Jason Myers 12 years ago 0

When performing a "find next" within a document, if you hit a result that is "offscreen" to the right, the x axis (scrollbar) moves right so you can see the result


Then, when you continue "finding next", the scroll bar remains shifted right to the value of the previous find (which IMO is usually undesirable, since seeing the 0'th column in code is most important to gain your bearing)


My suggestion is to reset the view x-axis to 0 after every "find next"

Vintage mode: make yank work with multiple cursors

Michael hauser-r 11 years ago 0

When you have multiple cursors and copy then paste with sublime it pastes what each cursor copied. when you enter visual mode with multiple cursors, hit y and then hit p each cursor pastes what was copied from all the cursors one after the other.

Cursor doesn't move when you shift+click to select backwards

Caleb Land 13 years ago updated by lanzz 13 years ago 1
If I have a document with no selection, and I hold Shift and click somewhere in the document /before/ the cursor, the cursor does not move to where I clicked, but remains at the end of the selection.

Selecting forward does move the cursor forward.

Option to move cursor in spaces as if they were tabs

Pelle Lindblad 11 years ago 0
Please add a feature so that the editor works identically even if the user chooses to emit spaces instead of tabs. Ie, pushing arrow right in a set of spaces would skip ahead to the next tab-stop.

Would probably make sense to add some kind of mechanics to toggle between the two if you, for whatever reason, want to reach a space in the middle of a bunch of spaces.

Please please add this. I've been changing editor like a million times mainly because of the consistent lack of said feature. If no one else cares to implement it, I will one day I will buckle down and write my editor :)

Thank you
Pelle

Add ability to navigate quick panel using TAB key

Ignacy Sokołowski 12 years ago 0

When using Vintage mode, I rarely use arrow keys. It would be nice if I could navigate quick panel using TAB key instead.
