Ability to bind back and forward mouse / keyboard buttons to switch files.

Chad Hancock 14 years ago updated by Jon Skinner 13 years ago 5
My Lenovo laptop (as well as the keyboard plugged in to my docking station) have keys that bind to front / back in a browser. Similarly, my mouse has 2 buttons that do that as well. On TextPad for windows, you can use those buttons to switch back and forth between files. Would be great to have that in Sublime as well.

Mouse buttons are customizable in build 2046, and buttons 4/5 go to the next/prev file by default.

Code-based markers

chaiguy 13 years ago 0
I'd like to see the ability to add custom markers to the function list (and ultimately the minimap, if my idea of combining the two is accepted) by adding specially-formatted comments to the code itself.

CodeWarrior used to do this way back with "#pragma mark Label", but something like a triple or quadruple slash might work better these days (of course this would vary with programming language).

For example:

//// Low-level Functions
function applyInherit( ... ) {
...
}

Can't open file with Sublime as default in Open With shell

Rob Graham 13 years ago updated by RIJO JOSEPH 8 years ago 6
I had older version installed before without issues, but since I updated to the most recent release, no matter what I do, I cannot get Sublime Text to show up in the Open With window of other programs. I browse for the programs .exe and check "Always use the selected program" but it wont load into the list of other programs. I can no longer associate my php files to Sublime. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Sublime too. Didn't help.

I've even gone through file association window in Control Panel but it just provides the same Open Files display. Sublime.exe WILL NOT load itself into the list. I now have to manually open my php files with sublime until I can get a fix for this.

I know there is an option during install to add a shell option to open with Sublime Text 2 when you right click a file, but this doesn't associate files to Sublime by default. It's very frustrating.

Perl 5.10+ defined-or operator (//) breaks syntax highlighting

Michele Beltrame 13 years ago updated by Italpro - M Beltrame 11 years ago 1
Since version 5.10, Perl features a defined-or operator:


my $confpath = $ENV{CONFIG_PATH} // './lib';
my $confile = $confpath . '/myconf.conf';


which however breaks syntax highlighting, so the second line (and any following) don't get coloured as they do by using the true-or ( || ) operator.


By the way, the defined-or-assign ( //=) operator doesn't break syntax highlighting.

Additional file exclude patterns for binary files

Oktay Acikalin 14 years ago updated by Geert De Deckere 12 years ago 2
Jon, I think you should add some more file patterns for binary files in the default Global.sublime-settings file like:
"*.png", "*.jpg", "*.jpeg", "*.gif", "*.bmp", "*.pxm", "*.psd"

It would be great to implement the Auto Save and Versions feature introduced by OSX Lion.

I don't know how difficult it'd be. 

Thanks so much,

change completion priority

vivo 12 years ago updated by robertcollier4 11 years ago 1

The priority of completion proposals poses a problem:


According to the documentation https://sublime-text-unofficial-documentation.readthedocs.org/en/latest/extensibility/completions.html

Priority of Sources for Completions

 - Snippets

 - API-injected completions

 - .sublime-completions files

 - Words in buffer


I.e. the words in my current buffer are not even shown if there are many .sublime-completions


I would like change the priority, or have different keyboard shortcuts for different kinds of completions

Sidebar doesn't update on Mac OSX randomly

Kurtis R G. 13 years ago updated by Kristen Grote 11 years ago 8
  • OS: Mac OSX 10.6.8
  • Build: Sublime Text 2 2165 (and at least the last two versions)

Expected:
When I delete a file from the sidebar, it should remove itself from the file list.
When I rename a file in the sidebar, it should remove itself from the file list and then add the new file.
When I add a file to the project it should add itself to the file list.

Behavior:
The sidebar doesn't seem to be updating when file events happen (rename, delete, create, move).

Steps Taken To Fix:
  • I've restarted the application.
  • I've deleted the application.
  • I've deleted ALL the file created by the application (including two sneaky ones in ~/Library).
  • I've reinstalled the application.
  • I've restarted my computer.
  • I've looked at the console.

Nothing, nada, zip. No dice!

This has now happened twice. The first time it randomly stopped after deleting all of my project files. Doing that again hasn't fixed it.

File history should be persistent like e-TextEditor

Subant05 13 years ago updated 13 years ago 0
File history should be persistent even after program closes.  The same way e-TextEditor does it.  When quitting the application or closing a file, a user can open that same file and revert back to various versions that were saved during the files lifetime.

Post-It/StickyNote System

Build cmd has no environment (OSX)

Oktay Acikalin 14 years ago updated by Nabil Boukala 12 years ago 12
Is it correct that a build script starts with nearly no environment on OSX? I would have assumed that my .profile would have been parsed before executing the cmd.
For now I had to run bash with --login to get it. Is there a better way to do this?

Right-click on dock icon should give the option to open a new window.

David Alan Hjelle 13 years ago updated by Rick Jensen 12 years ago 1
Many apps, such as Mail and Chrome, allow one to create a new document directly from right-clicking on the Dock icon. This is particularly useful when using Mission Control.

Thanks for a great editor, by the way!

Code completion dropdown goes out of view when you're at the bottom of a page

Kevin O'Connor 13 years ago updated by Jake Wilson 13 years ago 1

 If you're all the way at the bottom of a document and you hit Ctrl Space to invoke the code completer, the dropdown with all of the selectable values pops up underneath and goes off of the screen, with the preselected item quite often not being visible.  Maybe this should pop up above the line in question instead?
