IDE - PB command list BY library
Posted: Fri May 04, 2012 6:30 am
Often I know exactly which PB library I want to use a command from (Database, File, etc.), but can't think of the exact command name, so ...
Within the IDE source code editor it might be handy to have the ability to pop up a list of PB commands based not on the first few letters you have typed in, but by choosing a specific PB library from a list.
In a sense similar to the way AutoComplete works, except that you would perhaps enter a specific key-stroke combination which would then pop up a list of ALL the available PB libraries.
From that list you choose which library you want, it would then CASCADE to another list of all the PB commands IN that specific library only.
Just like with the AutoComplete list, you then choose which command you want and it's inserted into your code at the point where you hit the original key-stroke combination.
Alternatively, maybe it could be done from the right-click popup menu in the source code editor.
Right-click Menu > Libraries > (cascade to a list of PB libraries from which you choose one) > (cascade to a list of PB commands IN that library from which you choose one) --> inserts that PB command into your code.

Much faster than any cascaded menus.
