4. The symbols tab on the side panel shows an overview of functions. You can change the tags to be listed in order of occurance instead of alphabetical in a config file. Thanks, Steve |
| I am new to Geany plugins and GTK development in general, and I'd like to know some best practices (and how-to's) for a plugin I'm working on. It does code folding, by level--that is, rather than folding all of the code at once, just the top-level or second-level (or third-level...). (This is very useful to me, as I can open a file and get all the functions at a glance, or e.g. for a python class look at all the function defs by folding the second level, and so on.) I did so by essentially copying the folding code in Geany's fold_all function, and then adding a submenu and keybindings to call the function. I think this may be useful to others and I'd like to submit it to geany-plugins, but I have a couple questions first: 1) The submenu is in the tools menu, but I feel it would be better in the Document menu underneath the existing folding functions. Is this a good idea, and if so, how to I get at the document menu (since I can't say geany->main_widgets->tools_menu)? 2) I didn't set the keybindings since it's not recommended as it may interfere with existing ones. Is there a way to set them if the given key is not in use, or is that a bad idea? 3) In the actual folding code I used sci_get_fold_level (and a couple other scintilla wrappers) which aren't in the plugin API so I gather my plugin may break at some point. There doesn't seem to be a way around this for what I want to do. Is this ok? 4) Is there another plugin out there that does this? I couldn't find one. 5) Would geany-plugins accept another plugin?
