SlickEdit® / Re: Multi-cursor doesn't deselect blocks properly.

« Last post by Dennis on Today at 03:11:58 pm »

The intention is to toggle all lines containing cursors between the furthest right column and the physical line end.  It's more intricate than that though.  If you go to Tools > Options... > Keyboard and Mouse > Redefine Common Keys, there are several options for how the End key should behave including how to handle lines that have trailing whitespace.

Either way, I recommend we table this until you have hot fix 2.  I do not have a timeframe for when hotfix 2 will be published.

WRT toggling: Shouldn't it toggle all lines, not just first and last?
Toggle all lines: Cool!

SlickEdit® / Re: New file fails

If you have a project with wildcards and then add static file names, SlickEdit  gets confused. A lot of work has been put into v26 to fix this issue. This will not be fixed for v25.

These things will be fixed in a future hot fix for 25.0.1.  Thanks for pointing out these problems.

1) fixed
2) Actually, it toggles to align on the longest line.
2b) as designed
3) same fix

SlickEdit® / New file fails

« Last post by jporkkahtc on January 23, 2021, 12:32:48 am »

I have a workspace I created by dragging a folder into Slickedit ... so most files are included and it updates automatically.

When I create a new file with File->New with  "Add to project" is checked
Slick will sometimes create the file, then pop this error:

---------------------------
0
---------------------------
The file C:\src\project\foo.sh already exists in project C:\src\project\test.vpj
---------------------------
OK   
---------------------------

SlickEdit® / Re: Long lines lockup SE

« Last post by Clark on January 23, 2021, 12:12:20 am »

For v26, I've added a softwrap line break cache. That way, if you have many consecutive long lines, performance will still be good. In this case, you have many 4k lines in a row (worst case scenario).

SlickEdit® / Multi-cursor doesn't deselect blocks properly.

« Last post by jporkkahtc on January 22, 2021, 11:25:06 pm »

SlickEdit Pro 2020 (v25.0.1.0 64-bit)
Go to the top of a file.
Shift select+Down to select several lines.
Ctrl+Shift+| to add multiple cursors.

#1: Press END: Now the top line is deselected, but the other lines remain selected.

#2: Also, pressing END again toggles the last cursor to line up with the first one, or be at the end of its line.
#2b: Interesting ... actually pressing end again toggles the 1st and last cursors to line up with the longest line in the selection, or stay at the end of their respective lines.

Once you clear the selection (Say, by pressing left or right arrows), END toggles the position of all the cursors.


#3: Set multiple cursors as above
Press HOME: Properly deselects, but keeps multiple cursors.
Shift+Right a few times: Selects a few characters on each line
END: First and last line cursors toggle positions as described above.

Could you post your user.cfg.xml?  I'll try again to reproduce this on Windows.

I'm now using v25.0.1.0 64-bit and the problem still occurs. but I have noticed a new detail to his problem:

If I am viewing a modified file and the data being previewed exists within the modified file being viewed, then the problem occurs.
If I initiate the Preview through the Defs view, or from a different (unmodified?) code file view, then there is no problem.
