There should be a settings variable that expands to the user's home directory

Wes Morgan 12 ár síðan • updated by Ian F 11 ár síðan • 1

When setting values in user settings, there should be a $home (or similar) variable that expands to the user's home directory.

Auto-create new document while pasting content into empty window

Taimar Teetlok 12 ár síðan • 0

Automatically create new tab/document while pasting text or code into Sublime Text window with no tabs / open documents. So it wouldn’t require the extra step of manually creating one each and every time.


Thank you.

Code hint documentation and a FTP client!

Vinicius Cenci 12 ár síðan • 0
What SublimeText 2 really needs (to make me leave Dreamweaver) is to implement documentation directly on code hits (like in Dreamweaver) and on the next versions a  FTP client feature. With this 2 features will be more awesome to develop in SublimeText!

Advanced snippets

Erwan Richard 13 ár síðan • updated by Liam Cain 12 ár síðan • 4
Please provide nested substitution, python code evalution or builtin commande evalutaion inside snippet content.

I'm trying to make a PHP class definition snippet with classname and namespace according to the current filename and the filepath. 
The problem is that I need to make 2 or 3 substitutions of TM_FILEPATH to properly get the namespace declaration.

A great functionnality would be the possibility to evaluate some python code or a set of builtin command with a kind of `substitute('foo','f','b')` syntax like in vim snippet.

Can we have a api to create a panel like find panel

杨维杰 11 ár síðan í Plugin announcements • 0

if it exists ,we can do anything amazing. Such as a tooltio panel show the function comment like in IDEs, e.g. Netbeans, and a Visual guide for Create a template or a Plugin, etc..

Goto Anything should accept relative paths: "./Foo" would search in the focused file's directory

Jordi Boggiano 13 ár síðan • 0

Sometimes I do have one file open and would like to open one that sits besides, but has a fairly common name, this can happen quite a bit in large projects with deep structures and many files.


The ability to say "look only in path x" easily by starting my search with "./" or "../" etc would help narrow down the possibilities quite a bit.

Add text to files and folders in the side bar

Nick Fisher 13 ár síðan • 0
If it were possible to have plugins add text to folders (and files?) in the sidebar, I could see some great uses out of it. For example, it would be really helpful to be able to see the current git branch I'm working on, or which files have been modified since the last checkin.

eg (imagine this is the sidebar):

JSDocs (develop)
- jsdocs.py (*)
- Base File.sublime-settings

This shows that the JSDocs folder is on the develop branch and that I have local modifications to jsdocs.py

Visual feedback when browsing the views stack

aristidesfl 13 ár síðan • Uppfært 12 ár síðan • 2
Using a combination of "Goto Anything..." + "next/prev_view_in_stack" can be a very efficient complement/alternative to tabs, both in terms of speed and space.

When browsing the views in the stack, a representation of the views, and an indicator of witch view is currently being displayed would be really useful (pretty much like the application switcher in Windows, Ubuntu(alt+tab) or Mac OS X(cmd+tab)). 

This could be achieved with a palette containing the views in the stack, which gets shown when the "next_view_in_stack/prev_view_in_stack" is called, and dismissed when the modifier key (cmd/alt/ctrl) used in the shortcut is released.

Allow copying of segments highlighted by search.

Pranava Adduri 13 ár síðan • updated by Jon Skinner 13 ár síðan • 1
When searching for a pattern (be it regex or plain text), Sublime auto-highlights all matches to the expression. It would be invaluable for log analysis to be able to copy ALL the highlighted/outlined chunks to the clipboard. Some key combo to allow this would be super handy. Thanks!

Use the Find All button on the find panel to select all the matches, you can then copy them to the clipboard as usual.

Remove/lock the 'Ideas and Feature Requests' forum

Skalman 14 ár síðan • updated by aristidesfl 13 ár síðan • 1
This is about the website:
When entering http://www.sublimetext.com/forum/ there's nothing indicating that you shouldn't use the 'Ideas and Feature Requests' forum. Either there should be a clear link here, or else there should be a sticky in that forum indicating that feature requests go here, preferably while also locking that forum in order to prevent people from submitting feedback in vain.

Transient Side Bar

Kai Grossjohann 13 ár síðan • Uppfært 13 ár síðan • 0
WIBNI there was a way to make the side bar "transient"?  In this mode, a keybinding would open the side bar and then focus it straight away.  And selecting a file in the side bar would select the file, focus it, and hide the side bar.

Left side scrollbars

Brian Vito 13 ár síðan • 0
Have an option to have scrollbars and/or minimap on the left side of windows; the scrollbar and minimap options should be separate (i.e., it should be possible to keep the minimap on the right and move the scrollbars to the left).

Add a pre_close event.

Andrew Brookins 13 ár síðan • Uppfært 13 ár síðan • 0
I'm writing a plugin that would benefit from being able to detect when a user has initiated closing a file. 

In particular I need to perform an operation that would influence whether or not ST 2 considered the view dirty.

Allow .sublime-theme styling of fold.png

James Home 13 ár síðan • Uppfært 13 ár síðan • 0
Hiya! I'm working on a comprehensive theme/scheme combo and was curious if there was a timeframe for adding .sublime-theme support for the three image files that are still hardcoded to the Default theme. 

These are: 
fold.png
bookmark.png
dot.png

I'd be delighted if you prioritized fold.png in advance of the other three - it's in the body of the file itself and the yellow clashes dramatically with several color schemes. 

Any chance this might surface soon?

Thanks for creating an editor so amenable to customization - I've used and customized nearly all of them (BBEdit, Textmate, Coda, vim, etc.) and this is the most satisfying the process has ever been.

Make "New View into File" create an exact duplicate of the current view

BillyTom 11 ár síðan • 0

Right now when creating a new view of a file the newly created tab will display the file at row 1 with the cursor at column 1.


The new tab should have the same view port, cursor position etc. as the original tab. Basically, it should be a complete duplicate of the old view.


Please make this available as an option.
