Summary: Modify compiler errors interface
Initial Comment:
The ScrollPane interface to the compiler errors is
slow and a bit awkward. There's never any need in
scrolling half way between two errors. Perhaps a
cleaner interface would be up and down arrow buttons
(with their own keyboard shortcuts) that allow for
atomic scrolling between errors.
Story: The user compiles a program with errors. The
compiler errors tabbed pane pops up and displays the
first of these errors. A count of the total number of
errors appears off to the side. The user fixes this
error and then quickly pops to the next by clicking
on the down arrow button in the compiler errors
tabbed pane. He then clicks on the up arrow button,
and the first error reappears, with the fixed text
highlighted. He clicks the up and down arrow buttons
repeatedly, scrolling through and fixing the compiler
errors in the program.
The user then learns the keyboard shortcuts and
quickly pops from error to error without switching
focus from the definitions pane.
