SlickEdit® / Code Fold/Unfold

« Last post by gkl on December 04, 2023, 11:27:54 PM »

Dear All,

I am new to SlickEdit and I have found the following code for folding/unfolding code blocks:
_command void hs2_plusminus() name_info(',' VSARG2_READ_ONLY|VSARG2_REQUIRES_EDITORCTL)
{
   int pm = _lineflags() & (PLUSBITMAP_LF|MINUSBITMAP_LF);
   if ( !pm )
   {
      if (select_active()) hide_selection();
      else                 hide_code_block();
   }
   else plusminus();
}

Could someone point me to the right direction for binding it to a single mouse click on the left margin (next to the line numbers) and make it available for all file types?

Regards,
George

SlickEdit® / Is there a Qt5 build for Raspberry Pi?

« Last post by b on December 04, 2023, 09:54:12 PM »

I may be off, but I've noticed that the glyphs provided/used by FiraCode font did not work on Linux installations with Qt4 (coincidence?).  That is, it worked wonderfully on my Mac, I tested on Windows (which I noticed is Qt5), but was failing on both my x64 Ubuntu Linux as well as on my Raspberry Pi.   I installed the Qt5 build for Linux and it worked (thus my inference it may be Qt that is the issue).

Hm. Ok, I did a clean reinstall, and for the minute it seems usable. It seemed usable before however, until I left the application and then came back to it, so will keep this updated. Either way there is something a bit weird going on.

Ok, removing all settings did nothing, I'm still seeing complete unresponsiveness whatever I do.

I'm going to have to downgrade and submit a ticket, as for me v28 is literally completely unusable. I just hope I still have a licence file lying around (I did upgrade in place).

I stupidly upgraded over the weekend, which was dumb, but I have never had this bad an upgrade before from you guys.

Its not even using a lot of CPU, its just ... completely unresponsive. Key presses are taking seconds to be responded to.

I'm going to have to try something, as this is completely blocking my ability to work.

I'm having this exact problem right now. Slickedit is unfortunately pretty much unusuable for me.

It's not tagging afaict, but the interface keeps completely freezing.

I have a lot of saved settings, so deleting the settings folder and starting again doesn't entirely seem like a great idea Any clues as to what I need to do?

SlickEdit® / Re: help browser Qt5 version not working

Thanks Clark, using the files you provided works as well, but TBH, I'd much rather use libraries provided by my distribution especially for XML parsing, given the sheer number of CVEs in libxml, see https://www.cvedetails.com/vulnerability-list/vendor_id-1962/product_id-3311/Xmlsoft-Libxml2.html

I'm on Debian/testing.

Try placing the two attached files in your vslick28/bin directory.

Let me know if this fixes this problem and I will include these with the installer.

What Linux are you using? I'd like to create a VM I can test this issue on.

From the above it follows that SlickEdit's libstdc++.so.6 should be moved out of the way so that the system one is used, and things start to work fine.
