Hi All,
I seem to be locked in a battle of wills with the project file drawer (for lack of a better name). I remove references to sub-directories and files, and well, the file drawer puts them back in. Repeat. Repeat. Swear, and give round one to TextMate.
Anyone else battling with the drawer?
I got into this test of wills by dragging and dropping a directory tree that looked like: YYYY/MM and then removing references to a few YYYY/MM/img directories and the occasional pdf file. Well, "removing" them very temporarily :)
Thanks, Phil

Yes, it'll currently 'refresh' automatically. The current way to 'remove' items from folder references is using the file/folder patterns which you can by clicking the I icon in the project drawer.
In a later release I may add support for removing items in the more intuitive way :)
Kind regards Allan
Allan,
Unfortunately the battle continues. So I tried removing the reference to the pdf files and img directories via the "gear" icon at the bottom of the drawer (pull down to "Remove Selected Files"). But they were refreshed back into the drawer in short order (as they were when hitting delete before). Then I tried removing them via the "i" icon in the drawer, but ... but ... I'm not seeing how exactly? I think I'm missing something obvious :)

Highlight the folder and press the information-icon to edit the inclusion patterns (no, cmd-i doesn't work for now. Cocoa limitation). This will not exactly allow you to remove individual files, but you should be able to create a pattern to exclude the ones you need :-).
Ah, got it. Shoot, that doesn't work either. Well, it worked great just as long as I had TextMate up. If I quit out and restarted all the changes to the patterns are removed. Is there a way to make these changes permanent?
I apologize for my daftness.
Thanks, Phil

Hehe no worries... I must admit though that I don't know the details on this... but maybe someone else knows :-).
Hi All,
As a follow up, I just started getting into the bookmark feature, unfortunately when I quit out those seem to get dropped on the floor as well (like the folder inclusion patterns).
Will we be able to save these at some point? Or is this by design?
Thanks, Phil

I've taken my rough draft PNGs, spiffed them up a bit and created a "revised" icon. Same look, slightly different colors and little tweaks. Attached is a zip file with the *.icns file in it. That file has itself as an icon.
I made the little guy's blue more saturated, darkened his eyes to stand out more, and gave him bright red shoes and ball. I shrank his antennae so he could fill out more of the icon's area. Also made typewriter lighter and a cooler hue to help it recede. Smaller icon sizes are tweaked to look as best they can. Its not much of an improvement, but it helps it pop a little bit more on the dock.
Hope this helps.

With regard to the folder inclusion patterns, these should _not_ be dropped if you set it for the actual folder reference (as opposed to one of the sub folders). I will improve this (scheduled for 1.0.3), where I'll also save which sub folders were expanded etc.

By design I tried to make as much meta data as possible 'automatic', seeing how it could easily be out of synch if the file goes through another editor, CVS/svn, email, is moved on disk, or similar.
But I would of course like the best solution, rather than be religious about it. So even the things which are by design, are open for changes! :)
It would help to know how you use the bookmarks. Is it a temporary fix until the function popup? Could they for example be auto generated by giving a regex for all lines which should be bookmarked?
Personally I only use them as scratch bookmarks, i.e. when I want to go elsewhere in the source, but be able to return with a single key stroke.
Kind regards Allan

Ah. A little strange that it only works on the original folder reference, but that got it. Thanks, its saving the patterns.

So far the bookmarks I'm setting do tend to sit near function/method start, but only a select two or three I'm actively working on at any given time. The problem I've found, is if I set a bookmark too far from a function/method start I lose an important marker that identifies the context. If the the function popup was available and updated to show what function I was in, my bookmarks might start moving a bit further astray? Dunno. I guess I'd have to try it. Or maybe I should be writing smaller methods :)
