Feature Idea: Photoshop/Safari-style drag navigation

by Jonathan Ragan-Kelley

I recently discovered that Safari supports simple drag navigation around large pages rather line Photoshop's space-drag functionality: by simply holding ctrl and moving the mouse (not dragging -- the mouse button remains up), the cursor changes to a hand which grabs and drags the page. Perhaps I'm really late to the game on this one, but I'm totally hooked. I've been finding, however, that I'm so attached to this mode of navigation when reading in Safari that I'm constantly subconsciously trying to do it in all sorts of other apps. I personally think this would be a fantastic way to browse text in TextMate. Like all good programmers, I'm of course completely attached to the keyboard when actively developing, but there are many times when trying to figure out some code or reading a README is much more like browsing than active development, and in these situations I'd really love to have this sort of interface. It's particularly great for trackpad (or wacom tablet) use. Far from super-high priority, but at least worth a brief thought, as it's probably not the most challenging bit of polish to add. -jrk

Latest release too slow

by Tijs

Does anybody have any speedup tips for textmate? It never was the fastest of text editors but it's latest release (not CVS but stable) is really unworkable on my little iBook. Even in a 100 line html file it takes forever to scroll to the end of a line or the bottom of the document. I only use textmate for PHP, HTML, CSS, Javascript and Ruby so would it help if i just scrap all the extra's for the diferrent programming languages? Thanks for any optimization tips you might have! -- Tijs Teulings Automatique m: +31 (0)624685608 www.automatique.nl

Bug when drag and drop of an image file ?

by Ned Baldessin

Hi, I'm not sure if this have been discussed before, but when I drag and drop an image file from the Finder to an HTML document in TextMate, this is what I get : ## Component Manager: attempting to find symbols in a component alias of type (regR/carP/x!bt) <img src="Angela-Brunton/Angela-Brunton-1.jpg" width="600" height="570" alt="Angela Brunton 1" /> If I drag *two* images or more, the error message appears in the alt attribute of all elements, except the last one : ## Component Manager: attempting to find symbols in a component alias of type (regR/carP/x!bt) <img src="Angela-Brunton/Angela-Brunton-2.jpg" width="600" height="356" alt="## Component Manager: attempting to find symbols in a component alias of type (regR/carP/x!bt) <img src="Angela-Brunton/Angela-Brunton-3.jpg" width="600" height="426" alt="Angela Brunton 3" />" /> Has this bug been identified ? Thanks, - n.

Feature requests

by Dylan Smith

Here are a couple of Project Drawer feature requests. 1. Double-click on folder name should expand folder. (iTunes's Radio streams used to work the way TextMates does now, but with the latest release they've enhanced it as I'm suggesting). It's a small point, but frequently used interface elements shouldn't rely solely on a tiny triangle. 2. Standard keyboard shortcuts. First-letter navigation to file or folder beginning with that letter would be great. Command-Down-arrow should open file or expand folder. Return key should rename. Thanks for a great product. As a recent switcher I honestly feel TextMate is one of the big advantages of using a Mac. --Dylan

Hide TM disabled

by Matt Mower

Hi, Can anyone tell me why "Hide TextMate" and "Hide Others" in the Apple menu might end up being disabled? I have the focus in a document but can't use either, other apps seem to hide okay though. What am I doing wrong? Regards, Matt -- Matt Mower :: http://matt.blogs.it/

Indenting soft-wrapped lines?

by Jonathan Ragan-Kelley

I'd love to use soft wrap, but find it completely unusable in code when long lines wrap to column 0 of the next line, rather than to some appropriate indent level. Is this configurable somewhere, like it is in Xcode, VisualStudio, etc.? Thanks. -jrk

sorting in symbol popup

by Chris Jenkins

Allan, first let me just say how much I am appreciating the "go to symbol" popup, a real timesaver and so much nicer than my hand made version, however I am wondering whether it would be possible to somehow specify the ordering of this list? For me, using large-ish class files it lists all the functions (which is good), but it would be nice to have these in alphabetical order as opposed to the order in which they occur in the file. I can image that this isn't the way that everyone would want it, maybe some sort of preference or syntax file option would work? Do you have anything of this nature planned?

What happened to old syntax highlight styles?

by Ron Pritchard

Hello, I just upgraded my version of textmate and seem to have lost the old syntax highlighting styles. Any ideas how to get those back? In particular, I liked the yellow/green/orange colors used for php files. Thanks, Ron

Enhancement Request: Visible files in a project

by Robert M.Zigweid

This would affect directory based projects. It would be convenient to be able to change/set which files in the structure are ignored or seen. This could be based on an individual file. This could be based on (perhaps) a regular expression. For example, I might not want to ignore all of the '.' files which I don't appear to see now. (This is an understandable default. They are 'hidden' afterall.) But I also am very unlikely to want to see any '.pyc' files in my projects. Ditto for .class, .o, etc. -- Robert M.
