I spent yesterday watching a handful of screencasts for learning jquery. I was shown perhaps 5 or more editors, and started to see value in workflows I am not able to replicate.
I'm sure I'm just missing some prefs, pointers appreciated.
Vertical grid on tab stops. How do I turn this on? Seeing where a statement begins and then closes at a glance is very powerful. In jquery with all the parens and brackets, this visual alignment would help a lot.
I think this may not be possible. I figured I could get by with show invisibles. I'm not seeing tabs or spaces, just returns. I would also want to set returns and spaces to the same bg color to hide them. Too much noise.
I tried multiple themes, I can not get invisibles to show other than returns, which I don't need to see anyway.
I remember a theme that had this displayed by shading the alternating tab stops, but I can't seem to find it now. Funny, I'd forgotten about it until you mentioned it -- I could really use it at the moment!
