Hi all,
I made a plugin that puts one of those little zoomed-out scrollable mini-views into Geany, similar to Sublime Text's minimap. It's quite new but I think most of the bugs are worked out. If you wanna try it out or see it, you can from here:
Nice! And works on osx too, I've just tested, it's just a bit slow (because of slow pango font rendering on retina displays, nothing you can fix). Do you plan to include it in geany-plugins? (I think having it there improves the plugin's discoverability.)
Yeah, probably will put in Geany-Plugins, just kind of mulling over some ideas to allow it to have own repository/build system and sync it to Geany-Plugins whenever important/tested stuff is applied. I'm still not fond of the the all-or-nothing way of Geany-Plugins, but it's useful for exposure and packaging purposes of course.
For the performance, it might be possible to optimize somewhat. I think the plugin does more work than strictly necessary (ex. extra invalidations of the surface and stuff that cause superfluous re-drawings).
Cheers, Matthew Brush
