* indentation
I set tab& indent widths to 4 chars.
But pressing tab key seems to indent according to a logic I cannot catch, eg
function ...
tab stops here: 9 chars
You may want to turn off "Smart tabs", they indent according to spaces,
in the line(s) above the cursor.
Also if you are looking at indent, when pressing return:
- In the options dialog, go to (in the left hand site tree)
Codetools/General. There are 3 checkboxes regarding indentation here.
This intentations works by analyzing your source coed, and indent
depending on the
context found (e.g indent after "begin" differs from indent on normal line)
- in the Editor/General settings is "Auto indent" which always copies
the indent of the previous line (this has a lower priority than the
codetool intend)
* selection highlight
I'm unable to have selected text highlighted. Cannot find proper class in
syntax highlighting settings.
Worse, When I select more than one line, relevant parts of lines (down to the
last char) are not highlighted, only empty parts (after last char) get
different background color. This is visually disturbing.
This sounds like you may have set the background color of all chars to a
fixed color (and maybe they overwrite selection color)?
Editor options / colors
In the tree view of colors, go to "Text" / "text block"
If that does not help, please send your editor options xml file.

* duplication
Is there a "duplicate" feature (duplication current line or selection)?
For info: this replaces select + copy + move + paste + move up& down (to
unselect and come back) in one key press.
If you do any action such as move caret, or paste... The selected text
should become unselected. unless you use "persistent selection"
without persistend selection this should work
- select block
- ctrl-c
- ctrl-v
- ctrl-v
with persistent block, I believe it is ctrl-K ctrl-C
(actually that works for non persistent too)
you can assign your keys in "Editor"/"Key Mappings" => "Text Selection
Commands"
* place cursor at end of line
When I place the cursor on an empty part of line, the cursor weirdly stays in
the middle of nowhere instead of moving to the end of the line (just after last
char). Is there a way to change this (for any reason this behaviour gets on my
nerves ;-)
Editor/General:
Disable "caret past end of line"
Note that you still can enter spaces at the end of line. You can enable
them to be trimmed automatically (by default this only happens if you
leave the line)
