Bug with show marks

Hi owilsky,

The Marks command toggles only new line, EOF and tab marks, and does not include spaces. This is the specification. On v10, you can use independent commands on the View menu to toggle each mark.

Hi owilsky,
you can use a macro to toggle marks. There is a simple marco somewhere in the forum, I couldn’t find it though, I just post it here again.

#title = "Marks"

	#tooltip = "Toggle Marks ON/OFF"

	

	// Displays or Hides Marks.

	

	myobject = document.Config;

	

	if (myobject.Mark.ShowReturns==0 && myobject.Mark.ShowEOF==0 && myobject.Mark.ShowTabs==0 && myobject.Mark.ShowSpaces==0 && myobject.Mark.ShowDBSpaces==0 && myobject.Mark.CrLfDifferent==0 && myobject.Mark.ShowIndentGuides==0 && myobject.Mark.ShowControlCharacters==0) {

	myobject.Mark.ShowReturns="true"; // Returns

	myobject.Mark.ShowEOF="true"; // End of File

	myobject.Mark.ShowTabs="true"; // Tabs

	myobject.Mark.ShowSpaces="true"; // Spaces

	myobject.Mark.ShowDBSpaces="true"; // Wide Spaces

	myobject.Mark.CrLfDifferent="true"; // CR and LF with Different Marks

	myobject.Mark.ShowIndentGuides="true"; // Indent Guides

	myobject.Mark.ShowControlCharacters="true"; // Control Characters

	}

	else {

	myobject.Mark.ShowReturns="false"; // Returns

	myobject.Mark.ShowEOF="false"; // End of File

	myobject.Mark.ShowTabs="false"; // Tabs

	myobject.Mark.ShowSpaces="false"; // Spaces

	myobject.Mark.ShowDBSpaces="false"; // Wide Spaces

	myobject.Mark.CrLfDifferent="false"; // CR and LF with Different Marks

	myobject.Mark.ShowIndentGuides="false"; // Indent Guides

	myobject.Mark.ShowControlCharacters="false"; // Control Characters

	}

	

	myobject.Save();

You can comment the marks you don’t want to make the macro suitable to your needs.

Hello owilsky,

You will need to load the Config object into the memory before you can modify and save it. Please rewrite like this:

#title = "Marks" 

	#tooltip = "Toggle Marks ON/OFF"  

	

	editor.ExecuteCommandByID(4370); //EEID_VIEW_MARKS (4370)   

	cfg = document.Config;

	if(cfg.Mark.ShowReturns) cfg.Mark.ShowSpaces = true; 

	else cfg.Mark.ShowSpaces = false;  

	

	cfg.Save();
