Hi guys,
this thread covers the same issues as my replies in the thread "Column mode
- Just for insert does not work". But since the title of the thread implies
other content I decided to better start a new thread. Here we go...
In order to perfectionise column mode editing I suggest a few more features:
- Visualizing zero width column selection. Ultraedit does this, only a 1px
line, but it works great.
- Explizit column editing mode switch mode/button: Another great feature
of Ulraedit or Textpad which I would love to see in my (new) favourite editor
NPP.
Reason: imagine the following: I have a long text file, of which I want
to remove some columns (really happens once in a while). When using one of those
editors, I only have to switch to column editing, and mark the area using the
ctrl-shift-end keyboard operation -> finished.
When using NPP, I am only able to do this per mouse selection, which is a real
pain in long files because I'm being forced to additionally hold the alt-key
which then breaks the ctrl-shift shortcut. An explizit column mode removes the
need to hold down the alt-button and fixes this lack.
Another great benefit for this mode in NPP would be the ability to be able
to change the behaviour of the ctrl-pos1 and ctrl-end shortcut from e.g.: "jump
to the end of file" to "jump to the same column in the last line".
I do not intend to suggest giving up the fast and easy
alt-column-selection,
but only in adding one more button/mode similar to the "show invisible
chars"-mode.
- When having selected multiple columns, stroking keys result into changing
all chars to the same new value. That's fine. But what should be the correct
behaviour when an empty column is selected? Ultraedit's answer: column inserts!
(One new column per keystroke, selection is still there an moves with each new
character column) This is ingeniuos and the only resonable thing to do, isn't
it?
So what do you think about these suggestions? Comments greatly appreciated!
:)
BTW: Thanks to anybody which has participated - especially the main
programmers
- for this already great editor! :))
Best regards from Germany,
Ralph Gutmann.

I am having an issue with Npp and Win Vista.... is it just being buggy because
it is vista or I am doing something wrong here?
I was having a problem with ver 4.1 or NPP with it crashing on exit and on load
it said that xml was screwed up??? I don't remember having these issues in xp
with Npp.
Help, any one?

Hi
I agree for all proposal.
I just add that it could be could to add virtual space system to be able to
add character wih a vertical alignment. An example of that could be:
Original text
signal1
sig2
lonsignal3
After inserting with column mode ( a "_" represant a space)
signal1______=> ;
sig2_________=> ;
lonsignal3___=> ;
Another thing it could be good to add option to insert number by decreasing
order with the insert in column dialog box (which is a good idea)
Thanks a lot

The way to go then would be:
Search for the start of a section to keep.
Hold the shift key and move the window back to the top by using the scrollbar.
Then delete all lines.
Next, move to the end of the section to keep.
Search for the start of the next section to keep.
Hold the shift key and move back up...
I would have to remember the line numbers to be able to scroll back in a
somewhat
fast way.
It would be of help if I could set something like a select-mode: auto-select
all text from the current cursor position to where I am moving it, until I hit
some action button to cut, copy, delete or undo selection mode.
I could make use of the bookmarks then, or even skip them because of the easy
search capabilities. The point is that I have to search for both the start and
end of the block because they can be so big...

Good thing to start a new thread. I was about to suggest this in the other
thread,
although it was not totally off-topic there.
One thing I would like is for the Text FX to use the shown column number as
position indicator. That would make it possible to logically sort files that
contain tabs. Currently tabs are _counted_ as one position, which make sorting
very fuzzy. Tab positions should be accounted for in the same way they are shown
and shown as column number on the status line. Let's be clear about character
position (of almost no interest in a text editor) and column number as shown
on the screen (let's call it a grid for that purpose).

AFAIK there's no way to make it visible. Or you have to modify the source code
of Scintilla.
Make a note in wiki section is a good idea.

If you want to apply ALL the lines, no need to select.
Just put your caret in position then launch Column mode editor.

I think this would be interesting but also hard to implement. Also you have
to consider that people want to move through a document fast so you have to
load a buffer either side of the current view. I'm not sure that the underlying
Scintilla framework has any features like this and I think it a major new way
of doing things that it might take some time.
I guess what I am trying to say is that I wonder if it is worth the dev's time.
They have plenty of other things to think about. Hopefully though it might
come under the microscope by somebody.

We talked this issue in French forum.
The approach you suggest is difficult to implement, and make a low performance
issue.

I'll consider it.
