geany 1.30.1 Windows 10
Is there a way, or could you add an option, so that on compilation (or build) the messages window will open to display compiler Warnings just the same as it displays compiler Errors? I have all widgets hidden when working in geany (except for the document list on left -- which I wish I could turn the directory lines off in).
On compile, if an error is generated, the messages window automatically appears and the compiler line is displayed -- perfect behavior. However, when only a warning is generated during compile, the messages window is not displayed, and the status line shown compile was successful. (the warning line is nicely underlined, but I would like the full messages window displayed with the compiler status showing the warnings (some can be quite serious, e.g. incompatible pointer type, etc.., but status line still shows successful compile)
I have tried the Preferences -> General -> Miscellaneous -> [x] Switch to status message list at new message, but that does not cause the messages window to be displayed. A new option under this one with "[ ] Show message window for both errors and warnings." would be great.
You have done a great job with geany. I have a similar but much smaller editor project that I have not yet finished or ported to windows. (github.com/drankinatty/gtkwrite) I'll try and find the time to see if I can help with a patch. Thanks for your great work on geany. Let me know if I can provide any further information.
