Re: A great little feature I would like very much in BBEdit...
Hmmm… I don't care how this would work. Sigil can do that and MultiMarkdown Composer as well. And probably they are not the only ones. So… why not the glorious BBEdit, the Text's application we love (I love, at least)?!? So I care that editing a long document is a pain to get to line you want in Preview window :-( If not live scrolling (as MultiMardown Composer) at least a jumping to line (as Sigil).

Re: A great little feature I would like very much in BBEdit...
A simple question that should already have its answer: BBEdit is or is not an application to edit text? And basically the text is linear. And so the Preview of the linear text you are editing. Anyhow I do not think that adding a sort of Go to this line in Preview is a feature only to be expected from a super highly advanced application developed for use in a futuristic space agency ... or is it? ;-) Il giorno mercoledì 8 ottobre 2014 12:41:13 UTC+2, jgill ha scritto: Dave is right. In a three column design, the left column could be at the top of the HTML page, the middle column in the middle and the right column at the bottom.

AND … this script ***works perfectly*** running it from Apple Script Editor but doesn't work absolutely running it from BBEdit's Script Menu. It finds correctly the sequence of all the desired tags, but then nothing happens where instead from the Editor it folds in sequence all found tags. At the beginning I had that UI action in an handler. So I thought not to use it in an handler, but nothing changed. Then I put different *delay *in the repeat's block and in different positions … Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. And nothing again. So, have you any idea please? I don't like at all UI scripting, but unfortunately there is not any other way to fold items.
