Got an idea for enhancing PureBasic? New command(s) you'd like to see?

IDE procedure browser

Post by michel »

Hi Fred,

It would be fine to have the possibility to view the procedure list either in the logical order, or in an alphabetical sorted list
More a program grows, more this would help.
kind regards

Preferences -> ToolsPanel -> Select Procedure Browser -> Configuration - Procedure Browser -> Un/Check Sort Procedures by name :wink:

That is much too laborious for an option that one would need to change instantaneously.

absolutely correct, I have in mind a button above the list so that the user can alternate between alphabetical and logical order

I see :?: The original post was not explicit.
Maybe edit the post to say "One Button Procedure Browser Order".
Laborious or not, the functionality currently exists.

One way, would be to have a simple code tool that edits the preferences file and re-applies the preferences.
I don't know if the preferences can be re-applied after the IDE is open?
