Title: appearance
Post by: wever on August 30, 2014, 11:38:19 am
Is it possible to change the width of the column which contains lines of numbers? I have small screen resolution 800x600 and big size of font (13px) and it results in very wide columns. 8-9 digits would fit to the width of the column, even that there are only 2 digit numbers in file which I have opened. It looks strange because area of code starts near the begin of 2nd third of the width of screen (having Management displayed).

Look into "Settings->Editor->Margins and caret"

Thanks. And how to set color of cursor (it is not visible when I set black color on highlighting in C/C++ code)?

New problem. I disable all tool panels (icons on the top, just bellow menu). But when I build they are shown again. This is very frustrating. I must hide them always again and because they are many, this sucks. How to get rid of them? Taking place on screen.

Yes, just close all the toolbars... probably start inspecting the View menu...

...not to forget that you can have a "full screen view " with F11 and maximise the editor when working on it by double-clicking on it tab.

Seems I found it. I saved the perspective and now the did not disappear.

The F11 key displays dialoq window asking me if I want to create file which does not exists. I am debuging the code. But that's another story.

Fullscreen is engaged by shift-f11 or view -> full screen  ::)

Why does it always display "the perspective blabla has changed, do you want to save it?" This sucks

...because you don't enable'"don't annoy me again" :-)

Every time when I press the F8 to debug I see this:

Few times I have saved the perspectives with disabled toolbars and I have checked the Don't annoy me control. But this is still there. I have to use the saved Perspective with Watches window, but even that, the Watches window disappeared. So it does not work to me as I need.

You can setup multiple perspectives. There is a specific one used for debugging. You cab setup through the debugger options to which to flip. It reverts back to the original perspective once debugging has finished.

Which one is for debugging and where to set it? I don't see such option.

(Sorry, slightly off topic.)  I noticed in your screen shots that the spellchecker is underlining all your strings in red, a problem that I thought was fixed before 13.12 release.  Out of curiosity, could you right click on the flag (bottom right corner) and test several of the options?

Yeah, I have tried both USA and UK language it makes underline English words. But I can disable the spellcheck.

I am still having problems with the look in 13.12.

Then I turn on Watch window using Watch "variable", there is not redraw performed in the client area. I have to move the window over screen to redraw the area and see content. Also every time the columns are too small and I have to drag them to fix the text size to see the values.
