Patch: Keyboard shortcut (accelerator) for "select next"

Posted: Wed Jun 11, 2014 9:53 am
by caibbor
I've added a menu option and a keyboard shortcut (accelerator) for my beloved feature "select next" (which was recently added as "find next" with multiple selection in this github feature request. This is quite similar to CodeBlock's CTRL+E "select next" feature.

Expect to see more patch submissions from me in the future (:

PS, I'm not terribly familiar with git (I'm a svn guy) so I'm not sure how to get the current "revision number" if such a thing exists. my copy of CL from git is up to date as of this post.

I goofed and posted the wrong git output, but it's correct now.

I also renamed the feature to "Select Next Occurrence" and added "Select Previous Occurrence"

come to think of it, the menu options technically belong under the Edit menu, not Search.

Patched applied ( with 2 minor changes ):
- I moved the 'Select Next' to be on to of 'Select Previous Match'
- I am now using the Ctrl-F3 and Ctrl-Shift-F3 for shortcuts

After checking out a fresh copy of the source and thus being 100% matched with what you have, I noticed that these accelerators no longer work. I investigated a bit further and realized that you didn't apply some parts of the patch. I also noticed that feature no longer worked from the Search menu, either.

I merged in the changed lines from the patch in the top post with current git head and recompiled. Everything works now. Here's the patch to get this working properly (your menu oder stays the same):

Hi,
// Highlighted text takes precedence over the current search string
How can this be prevented ;) ?

Since the recent changes, I find that QuickFind is less likely to do what I want. It's fine if the selected text is what I want to search for, or to SelectNext. But if I then paste a new string into QuickFind, it doesn't automatically become the new search string; I have to press Enter before it's recognised. This is imho a bug, and it's certainly unexpected.

IIUC, the code you pasted will make it even harder to change. It can't be right always to use selected text...

Regards,

David

That code was word-for-word copy pasta from code Eran wrote, I simply copied FindNext() function to be SelectNext() and changed one line from

Code: Select all

DoSearch(true, false);
to

Code: Select all

DoSearch(true, false, true);
Without this function, the "select next occurence" option in the Search menu simply does nothing.

You seem to know more how CL works internally, feel free to fix my patch. As long as I can select multiple things with multiple cursors and edit them simultaneously, I'm happy. It allows to hack up and refactor code incredibly fast. Once you try it out and get used to it, you won't want to live without it ;)

IMHO many scintilla issues aren't as much "bugs" but side-effects due to having several immediate UI fields open at the same time and keyboard capture ping-ponging around. F.ex. pressing Enter in the incremental search goes to the next hit, but in the editor it adds a line. The "correct" behavior often depends on user intent... which STC cannot guess. And the focus handling sucks ;)

cheers,
