Please feel free to file an issue and at some point I may find time to look into it!</p> <p><a href="http://code.google.com/p/pnotepad/issues/entry" rel="nofollow">http://code.google.com/p/pnotepad/issues/entry</a> </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/53#post-8146 Tue, 26 Jul 2011 20:09:15 +0000 AntoneRoundy 8146@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>I'm running into a similar issue -- the one thing about PN that's aggravating me. When I'm selecting text with the mouse, if I'm scrolled right and move the mouse up or down to a line that's short enough that its end is scrolled out of view to the left, the display scrolls back to the left. This makes it very difficult to select text on long lines using a mouse, because almost inevitably, I drift just a little up or down as I'm selecting, and end up all the way back to the left.</p> <p>If auto-scrolling could be disabled while the mouse button remained down, that should solve the problem. </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/53#post-244 Fri, 26 May 2006 08:33:42 +0000 simon 244@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I do want to see virtual space but it will not be done for the next release - there are a number of other features that I'm working on that will take all of my time to get done.</p> <p>I would welcome any development effort from an interested person to try and get this done, it would need to be modifications to the Scintilla project. </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/53#post-242 Wed, 24 May 2006 12:57:53 +0000 seulater 242@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>not to be a pain, however I don't want to let this issue die. are there going to be plans to add "virtual space" to the next release ? </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/53#post-236 Wed, 17 May 2006 11:30:59 +0000 seulater 236@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>not to be a pain, however I don't want to let this issue die. are there going to be plans to add "virtual space" to the next release ? </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/53#post-221 Thu, 11 May 2006 20:10:28 +0000 Bjoern 221@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>Simon, yes, sort of:</p> <p><code>abcd<br /> ab<br /> abcd</code></p> <p>Placing the caret after the <code>c</code> in the first line, press arrow down places it after the <code>b</code>, next arrow down places it after the <code>c</code> in the last line.</p> <p>...and I swear that PN2 doesn't always behave like this. Need to find a testcase, though :) </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/53#post-218 Thu, 11 May 2006 12:28:39 +0000 seulater 218@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>Yes,<br /> if the line i am scrolling to has less characters than the line i am currently on the cursor will go to the EOL position on that line. This is the problem.</p> <p>The cursor should stay in whatever x position i have it in and not jump arround.</p> <p>if i want to put comments at the end of statements i have to constantly tab over to the end to add my "//". when i could just go down one line.</p> <p>Example...</p> <p>if((switch &#38; option) == PRESSED) // notes<br /> else // more notes </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/53#post-215 Wed, 10 May 2006 16:24:53 +0000 simon 215@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>Bjoern, do you mean the way that when you have text such as this:</p> <p>a<br /> abc<br /> deffgggg<br /> sdfsd<br /> asdfasdfasdf</p> <p>and move your cursor from the end of the last line up and down that it keeps trying for the end of the line? PN does that. </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/53#post-214 Tue, 09 May 2006 12:11:14 +0000 seulater 214@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>So how about it guys? can you stick in an option for virtual space on the next release ?</p> <p>this is the only thing keeping me from droping my other editor. will even donate. </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/53#post-213 Mon, 08 May 2006 19:51:46 +0000 Bjoern 213@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>Some editors (e.g. VS.NET) do keep the column index without the (in my opinion) idiotic virtual space. PN2 not behaving this way is (sort of) annoying :] </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/53#post-212 Mon, 08 May 2006 11:10:35 +0000 seulater 212@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>Thanks, that's too bad ;(<br /> it seems the more editors I use, they seem to default to this no "virtual space" option. I don't know why. its very cumbersome when you want to move the cursor up a few lines and its x position keeps changing, then you have to either use the mouse or left and right cursor buttons to re position it back to where it was at to begin with. </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/53#post-211 Mon, 08 May 2006 09:29:35 +0000 simon 211@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>Ah I see. No, this feature is often referred to as "virtual space" and there is no way to do it in PN at the moment. </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/53#post-206 Wed, 03 May 2006 14:04:39 +0000 seulater 206@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>Thanks, but i might have not been too clear on my question.</p> <p>I need my cursor to go past EOL. is there a way to allow it to do that ? </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/53#post-203 Tue, 02 May 2006 12:59:32 +0000 simon 203@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>Yes, you can turn on the default "Visible Line Endings" in the Defaults bit of the options dialog or turn it on per editor window with "View|Line End Markers" - presuming you mean PN2? </p> http://pnotepad.org/forums/topic/53#post-202 Mon, 01 May 2006 12:46:51 +0000 seulater 202@http://pnotepad.org/forums/ <p>Is there a way to turn on EOL ?</p> <p>Not sure how anyone likes using an editor without EOL. </p>
