SynWrite (Syn2)

[Alextp]

Ok. i swap em.

[Alextp]

i have several probs wth Syn.exe which cannot fix. E.g.
- not good KOL lib
- issue wth Alt key
- flash at start(not above issue)
- exe hangs if quit with folding not finished

i make monolit Syn.exe 2Mb w/o KOL, insteadof 70Kb Syn.exe + .wlx, now..

- not good KOL lib

what is KOL library?

Edit: After Google now i know what is KOL

issue with alt key

it's not a big problem. people can live with it.

- flash at start(not above issue)

hmm. what has changed in b340? before flashing was'nt there.

i make monolit Syn.exe 2Mb w/o KOL, insteadof 70Kb Syn.exe + .wlx, now..

do you continue wlx too? so only filesize is a bit bigger for exe?
i like wlx plugin mode.

[Alextp]

flash at start

i see flash how wlx loaded into Exe. Its not loaded instantly,
i see blank window

do you continue wlx too?

of course. Exe just changed

[Alextp]

in single exe I could later add Explorer pane(cannot do this in KOL).

[Matthias030]

for sure single exe is a good decision. explorer pane is not very important for me. i do most file navigation within TC. But for people who use Syn as standalone editor without TC an explorer pane is helpful.

Maybe also MDI interface (open new file in new tab) is easier to implement?

If you need new icons for any new features tell me

[Matthias030]

short report: if you drag a new document to editor window by mouse, then unsaved changes are lost in old document. affected is only exe, not wlx

[Alextp]

fixed, ok.

[Matthias030]

Have tried new version. Flashing at startup is gone in wlx. Thanx!
Issue with ALT-Key is only fixed for exe, not for wlx. But as i told before, it's only an unimportant bug.
Did you tried again to fix bug with missing headline bar "Tree" above syntax tree window? It is still missing after startup in wlx.

Best wishes,
Matthias


Edit: Also I have seen that icons for "export to html/rtf" are missing. Is that wanted or is it a bug?

Edit #2: autocomplete is broken. "</" for end tags is no longer working. Also following autocomplete lists are not visible. Example: After selecting "<table" there was a following list with "attrib align" and so on.

[Matthias030]

Autocomplete: affected is only exe. wlx is working as before

[Alextp]

- to fix bug with missing headline bar "Tree"
yes, trying.

-icons for "export to html/rtf" are missing.
Removed em, not needed..

..autocomplete is broken
fixed, tkx.

[Matthias030]

I am not sure if I am right. Now you have to develop wlx and exe separately. All changes are made two times, one time in exe and one time in wlx.

Is it easier to use only one exe? You could use a wrapper wlx that simply loads exe in TC lister window? I don't know if it is possible and if it is better than current version.

[Alextp]

no, no changing 2 times. 1 time in unMain.pas, then compilg the exe and wlx.

-Is it easier to use only one exe?
Not possible.

[Matthias030]

Hi. Here are again two issues with autocomplete:

1. Insert tag before text deletes text. Please see this demo:
http://www.file-upload.net/download-2687788/Project002.exe.html

2. Type "<br" and then type ">" to close tag manually without autocomplete: text on screen is now "<br >" with an inserted space

I have seen that new function "character table" is changed by changing codepages. For ANSI the character table shows Ansi codes. If I switch to OEM then ASCII codes are visible. That's really good.
But in OEM I can't use ASCII codes. If I click on any code then ANSI code is taken instead from same position in list.
