Can we get better code formatting controls for the various editors throughout Toolset? I've found that when working on a complex view etc that the code can get sloppy looking in the editor and at times is hard to follow.
1) Indent Character Type - Right now Toolset editors appear to use 2 spaces for indents. Like many devs though, I much prefer using tabs. Can we get an option to select which character type the editors use for indents?
2) Indent Character Width - Can we get the ability to set the width of whatever indent character we chose in the option above? For example, I want to use tabs for indenting and I want each tab to be the width of 4 characters.
3) Number of Indent Characters - When indenting code, how many of the above indent characters should be used. For example, right now Toolset appears to use 2 spaces, whereas a user may want to use just a single space or tab.
4) Turn Off Line Wrapping - Can we get an option to turn off/on line wrapping? Line wrapping often makes the code harder to follow so it would be nice if we could turn it off/on when needed. This option should probably be accessible from the editor as it would be changed more frequently than the other options above.
5) Resize Code Editor - Can we get the ability to resize the code editor? I know there is an option to have the code editor grow as code is added, but this eventually makes the code editor too tall. Can we get the same functionality as TEXTAREA fields in browsers, where we can drag a corner of the editor to resize it? Can we also get an option that expands the editor full-screen, but with the buttons and controls still visible!
6) Font Size - Can we get the ability to set the font size used in the code editors?
There's probably more, but even the above changes would make coding in Toolset much more enjoyable.
Indent character type and turning line-wrapping on and off are absolute basics of any code editor. These don't seem like huge changes and yet they improve the coding experience greatly. I hope you reconsider.
