Thanks for the new release and for the example macros.

Quick test of the new features….

The Quick Launch window allows you to enter ‘@’ to show the symbol list

That works for me only if I execute ‘SymbolList.jsee’ for this document right before.
It does nothing if I just open ‘Quick Launch window’ and enter a ‘@’ sign.

And then, ….
in ‘Quick Launch window’ I get only the list of functions,
but no functionality, like scroll the clicked function into view or like that.
So what is the sense of this particular feature? Sorry, I don’t get it ;-)

 
 
And, BTW, possible bug report:
If I close the ‘Quick Launch window’, sometimes also the EmEditor main windows loses the focus and gets hidden behind another window.
This was also with the last beta. I have not tried to get the cause of this behavior yet.

 

Thank you for making EmEditor.

New General Features

Hi Yutaka,

thanks for the beta 2! ….still an improvement!

 
But I also get this crash with beta2, if “Keep This Window Open” is NOT selected.

I tried with a *.js file “Prototype JavaScript framework, version 1.6.1” on Win7/64 with EE-v15.6.0 beta 2-portable/32
– open the file
– open Quick Launch Ctrl+Q
– do NOT opt for “Keep This Window Open”
– enter ‘@’ sign
– right click > Jump (or double click)
– EmEditor is crashing unexpectedly. We apologize for any inconveniences.

 
if “Keep This Window Open” -IS- selected, the Jump works!       (good observed, FuzzyBear :-) )

 
BTW: discussion:
the symbol list is sorted by you,…. I don’t know yet if this is fine or not….
… because the order is different from real order in file, and so the Jump is irritation (on my first tests)

Hello,

Thanks for bug reports. I already fixed the Quick Launch issue. The next beta release will include this fix.
Since I am making major internal changes, it will take some time before I can release the next beta version.

Thank you!

[Yutaka Emura]

Hello Stefan,

If you want the Symbol list unsorted, please open the Projects plug-in, go to Properties for Current Solution Temple, click the Symbols tab, and enter

--sort=no

in the Additional Parameters to Ctags (advanced option)

In future versions, I might make this configurable from the EmEditor UI.

Thank you!

[Yutaka Emura]

Hello Stefan,
This sort feature has been included in beta 3.
Thank you!

[Stefan]

Hello Yutaka,

here are my observation on testing the beta3

– Jump now works even with disabled “Keep This Window Open”. Good work.

– I find this sort option useful, thanks for implementing.

– It do not work on *.jsee files, only if I save with *.JS extension,
Likewise possible the same for *.vbee?

– Works only on saved files and on files with the right extensions.

– The ‘symbol list’ is not updated on saving the document,
I have to re-open, or at least (temporarily) change the sort order.
Ahh, now! …there is a ‘Refresh’ context menu entry! Fine!

– Two or more functions with same name are listed only once. But I think all should be listed? No?

———–

Idea:

I would find it very useful to see also
the function parameter to look up quickly the need syntax:

function.Backup(strSource, strTarget, intOption)
function.isElement(object)
function.merge(array, args)
function.argumentNames()
function.delay(timeout)

I tried already with ctags options, but had no success:

– Enable Projects plug-in,
– right-click into Projects pane
– launch Tools >Properties for Current Solution Template, (this is named ‘default’ for me)
(or should I go “Tools > Solution Templates” and chose ‘Visual Studio’ ?)

– open Symbols tab
– modify “Additional Parameters to Ctags (advanced option)” field

-V
-e –c-kinds=+defgpstux -R

Ohh, already a beta 4!?! … ;-) Fine! Thanks! I go taking a look………..

[Yutaka Emura]

Hello Stefan,
