Python Editor Enhancement Requests

[Randolph]

Could you...

1. Add a reminder that Tab/Shift-Tab are the keyboard shortcuts for indent block/unindent block? I forgot today, and it took me a while to remember.

2. Add a "reflow" option, so that code can be wrapped within the usual python style 72 character line-length?

3. Support the default Windows "tab" behavior in the "Find" dialog box?

[Giulio Piacentino]

Hi Randolph,

I am probably guilty about the third item. Can you elaborate on it? Do you mean you would like the target of the Find/Replace box to switch target when you change tab?
Thanks,

- Giulio

Giulio, thanks for the quick response. The F/R box starts out with the cursor in the "Find" field. What I'd like to see is for tab to take the cursor to the "Replace" field (and shift-tab to go back to the "Find" field), and then to the various buttons and options in some reasonable order.

I would also wish for codefolding. thanks

[Giulio Piacentino]

Hi Goswin,

I see you mentioned this also on some other another occasion. But I experience that there is some codefolding in the editor already. I am wondering what other specifications you would need? (it is a little hard to guess like this).
Thanks,

- Giulio

Hi Giulio, I was thinking of "collapse all" like in David's vbs Monkey. sorry for not being more specific in my post.

[Giulio Piacentino]

Ah ok, you mean "Edit" -> "Outlining" -> "Collapse to definitions" in the QWhale-based editor, right?
I'll see if I find the relevant piece of information in the Python editor.

I've added the wish to the list.

Original request number 3 is tracked here: https://github.com/mcneel/rhinocommon/issues/93

For 1 and 2, I need to go back to them in a little time.

[Goswin]

yes, thanks for implementing this Giulio!

regarding original wish 1: It would also be nice if shift+tab key goes 4 spaces back like the tab key alone goes 4 space forward (on an empty line with only a lot of spaces)
