smallB:
1. Folding is misleading. It leaves left top most bracket. It looks like closing bracket is missing. I think that this style of collapsing would be more obvious:

Having:

--- Code: ---for (auto i : c)
{
//body
}
--- End code ---

After collapsing body of for

--- Code: ---for [...]
--- End code ---
- the part [ ... ] is collapsed body of for
or:

--- Code: ---for (auto i : c)
[ ... ]
--- End code ---
- collapsed body

This is a scintilla feature ask on their mailing list if this style is supported, if it is we can try to enable it.
But my opinion is that this is pretty ugly (the VStudio style) and I like the current style pretty much, especially the horizontal line...

one suggestion: write all your features requests in a text file and after you've used C::B for a while post the ones you still feel are relevant and useful.

smallB:
@Obfuscated, that's ok, I didn't know (still don't) how am I suppose to recognize which is cb feature and which one is scintilla?
Anyway, I already have txt file with features request and I do filter them before I post them here.

2. Compiler option - make it explicitly visible
Guys, now when I set compiler options like -Wall it is not obvious at all which warnings are enabled. I know that it suppose to mean "all" but there is -Wextra so it looks like -Wall is not all at all ;)
What I'm driving at is that if I i.e. select -Wall, it would be quite a helpful if all those warnings would be listed somewhere (next tab named: "command line", perhaps?).
Also for some green horn like me it is not obvious at all if certain switches are exclusive or not. Example:
Can I use -std=c++0x with -std=c++98? Or only one there may be selected? Again, if so the other one should be disabled.
Also If I select -Wall then I think quite reasonable is that all listed warnings which actually are "within" -Wall should also be ticked automatically + listed on tab named command line.
Thanks.

Increase the threshold, the filter is not working good enough :lol:

-Wall changes enabled warnings every gcc release, so we can't do what you propose.
The checkboxes are for convenience only.
And:
1. you're supposed to know what you're doing.
2. you're supposed to know what every option does, before setting it, so go read the gcc docs before setting them
