Open recent files by right clicking on ST2-icon in dock

When you right-click the BBEdit-icon in the dock, you can choose from a list of recently opened files. This is very useful and I miss this in Sublime Text.

Ignore files/folders when using "Find in Files"

Robby 13 years ago updated by Phil Strong 13 years ago 2

 It would be nice to be able to ignore certain files/folders when doing a project search. Right now I have to sift through a ton of junk to even read my search results. I'm fine with search just recognizing file_exclude_patterns and folder_exclude_patterns, but it may be useful to have specific patterns as well.

Show number of matches on the top in find results

Allen A. Bargi 13 years ago updated by Jinren Chuah 9 years ago 2
when I do a project search I'll get something like this: 
Searching 361 files for "BiDi"

......
long list of results here
......
109 matches across 67 files
please move the last line "$number matches across $file_count files" to the top of the result buffer to have something like this: 
Searching 361 files for "BiDi"

109 matches across 67 files
......
long list of results
......
so that we can see the number of matches and matched files immediately and do not need to scroll to the bottom to check it.

Full Screen mode in OSX should push tabs down when menu bar slides in

Fraser Graham 12 years ago 0
In many of Apple's Full Screen apps the UI components at the top of the window slide down with the menu bar when it slides on screen so that they dont get obscured when the menu appears.
This is useful when you move the mouse slightly too far and the menu pops making you wait for it to go away before you can select the tab you want.
Mail.app does it well, you could look at that for reference. It looks like the top UI components are anchored to the menu bar.

Three sidebar enhancements that would boost developer productivity...

Chris Simeone 12 years ago 0

I love Sublime Text 2, it's a great tool. The area I think needs the most improvement is the Sidebar. Here are some suggested improvements that would be a huge help...


1) Most important, please fix the sidebar "reveal" functionality so that when a file is revealed, the sidebar scrolls making the revealed file name visible.


2) Please fix sidebar "focus" issues. When a user clicks in the sidebar it should recieve the focus, not the document being edited. Then when a user presses the UP/DOWN arrow keys the cursor highlights the next or previous file, or when a user presses the PAGE UP/PAGE DOWN keys the sidebar scrolls up/down a page length, or when a user presses the HOME/END keys the sidebar scrolls to the top/bottom of the file list.


3) Please add "Collapse" and "Expand" functionality to the context menu to collapse/expand the currently selected folder. Also please add "Collapse All" and "Expand All" to collapse/expand the entire folder list.


These would be huge sidebar improvements that I believe would enhance developer productivity. 

Thanks!

Make slow plugin warning modeless

chaiguy 13 years ago updated by Dimitris Zorbas 12 years ago 1
The slow plugin warning is handy and a great addition, but it can really get in the way as a modal dialog that needs to be acknowledged. I think some sort of modeless info bar at the top or bottom of the editing window would be a lot less distracting, but still just as useful.

Highlight starting parenthesis matches

Craig Campbell 13 years ago updated 13 years ago 2
Right now there is a really subtle line underneath parenthesis and brackets so you can see the starting and ending parenthesis and where they match.

It would be really nice if there was some sort of light up bubble when you type a closing parenthesis or move the cursor over one with the right arrow key.

TextMate2 does this really elegantly with a yellow bubble that glows temporarily over the matching starting parenthesis/bracket.

Smarter Title Case

It would be useful for the title_case command (Edit > Convert Case > Title Case) to keep articles (a, an, the), coordinating conjunctions (and, but, or, for, nor) and prepositions in lowercase.  Thread

Editor range selections/caret positioning behaves differently than the rest of OS X's text views do

Shaun Harrison 13 years ago updated by gscottolson 12 years ago 1

Sublime Text 2 handles text range selections and caret position changes slightly differently than the native OS X text views do. 


Test Case #1:  Open a blank file with a single line with the contents "one two three"

  1. Highlight the word "two" and press the left arrow key while holding shift
    1. Expected OS X behavior: Expand the text selection to the left of "two" by one, resulting in the selected range being " two"
    2. Sublime behavior: Decreases the selection from the right by one, resulting in the selected range being "tw"
    3. Note: This is not the case for shift+right, this works as expected.
  2. Put the caret in the middle of the line, press the up arrow key
    1. Expected behavior: The caret moves to the beginning of the line
    2. Sublime behavior: Nothing happens
  3. Put the caret in the middle of the line, press the down arrow key
    1. Expected behavior: The caret moves to the end of the line
    2. Sublime behavior: Nothing happens 
  4. Highlight "two", press the up arrow key
    1. Expected behavior: The caret moves to the beginning of the line
    2. Sublime behavior: Caret moves to the beginning of the word "two"
  5. Highlight the word "two", press the down arrow key
    1. Expected Behavior: The caret moves to the end of the line
    2. Sublime behavior: The caret moves to the end of the word "two"
  6. Highlight the word "two", press the up arrow key while holding shift
    1. Expected Behavior: It highlights the entire line up until the end of "two" resulting in "one two" being highlighted
    2. Sublime behavior: It highlights the entire line up unto the beginning of "two" resulting in "one " being highlighted
    3. Note: This is not the case for shift+down, it works as expected.
Test Case #2:  Open a blank file with a two lines, both with the contents "one two three"
  1. Highlight the word "two" in the second add line, press the up arrow key while holding shift
    1. Expected behavior: It moves extends the range to select everything from the beginning of two on the first line, to the end of two on the second line, resulting in the selection being "two three\none two"
    2. Sublime behavior: It changes the range to selection everything between "two" on the first line and "two" on the second line, resulting in the selection being " three\none "
    3. Note: This is not the case with shift+down while starting on the first line, this works as expected.
I tested and confirmed "expected behavior" in the following OS X apps:
  • TextEdit
  • TextMate
  • Xcode
  • Espresso 2
  • Chocolat

When cursor is on a closing bracket, showing corresponding open bracket and code

Polga 13 years ago updated by jeandeluxe 13 years ago 1
When you have a closing brace / bracket from a really long method or conditional statement and the opening brace is up and off the visible page, it's nice to see it along with the code, for reference. Zend Studio does this well and I've attached an image example. Very handy feature!

Settings for adding padding around text.

Pedro Murillo 13 years ago 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 years ago updated by tomr 12 years ago 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.

auto-hide/collapse folder pane

Prajwal Manjunath 12 years ago 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.

Scroll horizontally using the minimap

Matt Campbell 12 years ago updated by Vachagan Balayan 7 years ago 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 years ago 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.
