[dabo-users] ClassDesigner improvements

Hi,

I have two suggestions:

1) content of dropdown method list in code form is sorted alphabetically -

it would be nice if entries in method list of Object Info form were

sorted too

2) double click on position of that list could open edit method code

form for

selected method/event or activate form if it is already open.

They are sorted by their order on the form. Since most names are =

not =20

terribly different (dTextBox1, dTextBox2), the alphabetical order =20

doesn't give any information, whereas the containership order does.

I don't follow what you mean here. Could you explain it =

differently?

Please, take a look at

In dropdown list methods are nicely sorted, but in right window aren't.

In addition with second point it's important.

I don't know but seems that I can have only one method code form opened

at time.

What if I need to modify dPage1.onDestroy event?

I have to pick object, then method from list on method code form.

What if I need to verify dForm._getApi method again?

I have to follow pick chain again and again, and so forth for every

method I need to modify.

My suggestion is that double click on item in method list of "Object

Info" form will cause

to open another method editing form for that item.

So I could have as many method editing forms open as I need.

I think it's not a trivial modification but could be very usefully for

forms with lot of objects.

Oh, you meant the method list on the PEM form. OK, that's just a =

=20

matter of adding a sort() call. I'll get to that tonight.

The current design is to only have one code editor open at a =

time. =20

When we are able to spend the time to create a real IDE, you will be =20

able to have multiple editors open at once.

No, it's not trivial.

OK, I took a quick look at it at lunch, and it was a simple fix. It's

in svn now.

Many thanks. Works perfectly.

BTW, I still don't have "Window" menu.
