Category: None Group: None Status: Pending Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Craig McQueen (cmcqueen1975) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Vertical rulers Initial Comment: For assistance with indentation, it would be good to have vertical rulers of some sort on the text area. Options could be: 1) Vertical lines (similar to wrap indication) 2) Alternately shaded background colour of columns (e.g. white/light gray) This would be especially useful for Python, which relies on indentation for logic flow. Another possibly useful feature would be a "highlight current column" similar to the existing "highlight current line". That would help if trying to indent the current line to the same level as, for example, a bracket 30 lines up. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Dale Anson (daleanson) Date: 2008-03-14 15:53 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=187628 Originator: NO The ColumnRuler plugin does the last part, the one about highlighting the current column. Perhaps this request would be best added to ColumnRuler? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Robert Schwenn (rschwenn) Date: 2008-03-14 13:20 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1486645 Originator: NO The Whitespace Plugin lets You show "Fold Guides", too. These are vertical lines with one configurable color for all lines. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Blackwell (blackweli) Date: 2008-03-14 02:37 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=971109 Originator: NO I see the usefulness of this for code that has been written with indentation that is visually hard to grasp. The way you describe the usefulness of this feature is to write code with indentation that is visually hard to grasp. It's just a tool, sure. For analysis of funked up code or third party data file formats, great, for writing code like that? Please no. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Matthieu Casanova (kpouer) Date: 2008-03-14 02:16 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=285591 Originator: NO Hi, I didn't try it but I there is a plugin that seems to do that.
