Hi guys,

it would be nice, even great, no...fantastic, if the code window could be split into 2 parts. That would prevent having to scroll all the time to have 2 Codeparts in view.

I use a 4k monitor in portrait(!)-Mode, see ~200 lines, but still have to scroll, scroll, scroll....

Is this doable? My birthday is coming up, this would be a nice gift!

Currently i use Markers (F2/ctrl-F2) and keep jumping between them, but 2 windows would be a lot better.

AkelPad has a convenient menu. If I right-click on the line number field, a menu appears. This menu has all the markers that I have set and clicking on a menu item takes me to that position. It would be nice to implement this idea


I hope you know that you can turn on the procedure bar, and make the positions you need to move to in the form of comments: here the dash character adds that position as a marker in the procedure bar.

yes, i know...but with hundreds of entries (alphabetically unsorted!) this is not very helpful

There's a setting to sort it alphabetically.

Where is this setting? I could not find it.

File -> Preferences -> ToolsPanel -> Procedure Browser

But it sorts the procedures, don't know if it is what you want or you want only comments you may put near the markers ";-" sorted, there is also an option to group them.

Thanks! That was it. I overlooked the checkbox in there.

Thank you, that is already better than before
