Hi guys,

I have a suggestion for improvement of the editor:

In large programs it would be very helpful, if one in the program text e.g. a procedure or Macro 2x clicks, this not only in the program code is highlighted, but also in the Toolbox on the right side, that one can go there immediately with one click. That would save the annoying search there.

(I use PB 5.41)

If you press Ctrl and left mouse button on the procedure name, you will jump already to the procedure definition.

BTW, it's in the manual

The PureBasic IDE -> Editing features -> Double-clicking on source text
help-file wrote:When double-clicking on the name of a procedure call, while holding down the Ctrl Key, the cursor automatically jumps to the declaration of this procedure (the source containing this must currently open or part of the same project).
Even if to be picky it jumps to the definition, not the declaration.
