Ideas for CodeLobster PHP Edition

Lucato · **Posted:** Mon Dec 14, 2009 7:14 pm

Hi folks, here I will post all my ideas/suggestions together that came up while using this amazing tool. So they're my needs and can be other users needs too. Thanks for sharing such amazing tool!

1) Comparsion:
I'd like to suggest a new feature that would allow us to open two php files and get to compare them and a third tab would show the differences.

2) Status bar - Full path info
When we select a tab file, it would show at the very bottom (staus bar) the path of the file. Sometimes we open the same file from 2 different paths, and it would be great to know from where each one come from. Or instead of showing the full path info at the status bar, it would show on the top, on the side of the name of the software/file -> Full path. I preffer on the status bar or it would have a gray line right under the tab with the full path.

3) Coming soon...

Hi.

Big thanks for your suggestion.

1) For comparsion we will look for some external module that we can use.

2) You may see full path to files in the tooltip while stopping mouse over file name in the tab.

Hi Admin, thanks for your reply.

1) Great, that will be cool. Actually, after posting I found an Open Sorce software for comparing it, as it is Open Source, maybe you guys can implement it. Well, I don't know, I'm not a programmer, just a guy that post suggestions. :0) The software that I found is WinMerge that you can find at http://winmerge.org/, I think it worths a look.

2) Ops, my fault, I didn't noticed that. I'm sorry about that. Thanks for the "tooltip", I mean, the tip. :0) Anyway, a static path info would be better or get to make the tooltip hides just after mousing out the tab. ;0)

Cheers.

May be the windows Title bar is a better place to show the full path. Currently it shows (sometimes) the current filename, without path, but it doesn't if the file was opened clicking in the project browser.

And it would be nice to have the open file list stored in the project file, so changing project bring you to the last status in the last open project.
For me has no sense to keep files of project 1 open when I open project 2.

Hi.

We use foreign library for showing title.
Therefor it is very hard to do any changes here, and we still have this minor problem with it.

About storing current state in projects:
Thanks for it, we already have this issue in our plans.
