I know that there has been a similar question asked here very recently, but I was wondering if it was possible to tab between buttons on default Mac OS X dialog boxes? I already have the "All Controls" option enabled in System Preferences->Keyboard and mouse->keyboard shortcuts, but no joy. ...
I would really like to see a proportional font IDE, even if I have to build it myself (perhaps as an extension to Visual Studio). What I basically mean is MS Word style editing of code that sort of looks like the typographical style in The C++ Programming Language book: I want to set tab stops for my indents and lining up function si...
Today I was working on a tab navigation for a webpage. I tried the Sliding Doors approach which worked fine. Then I realized that I must include an option to delete a tab (usually a small X in the right corner of each tab). I wanted to use a nested anchor, which didn't work because it is not allowed. Then I saw the tab- navigation at P...
What win code editors allow the use of elastic tabstops, either natively or through a plugin? I know about a gedit plugin, but the elastic tabstop plugin for gedit only works on linux. ...
How do I implement a draggable tab using Java Swing? Instead of the static JTabbedPane I would like to drag-and-drop a tab to different position to rearrange the tabs. EDIT: The Java Tutorials - Drag and Drop and Data Transfer. ...
Hi all, I am trying to get the "Edit with Vim" my Right click context menu to work, so that each new file I open opens in a new tab in a single instance of vim. Currently, using Regedit I have set \HKEY-LOCAL-MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Vim\Gvim\path = "C:\Programs\Vim \vim72\gvim.exe" -p --remote-tab-silent "%*" The registry key is of t...
When Visual Studio (2005) has Options -> Text Editor -> C/C++ -> Tabs -> Indenting set to Smart it will automatically indent code blocks and line up squiggly brackets, {}, as expected. However, if you hit enter inside a code block, move the cursor to another line, and then move it back, the inserted tabs are gone and the cursor is positi...
The two connection limit can be particularly troublesome when you have multiple tabs open simultaneously. Besides "ignore the problem," what coping mechanisms have you seen used to get multiple tabs both doing heavily interactive Ajax despite the two connection limit? ...
I have looked at the ability to use tabs in vim (with :tabe, :tabnew, etc.) as a replacement for my current practice of having many files open in the same window in hidden buffers. I would like every distinct file that I have open to always be in its own tab. However, there are some things that get in the way of this. How do I fix these...
I've been using Visual Studio for a long time and the constant shuffling of the code tabs at the top drives me bonkers. I was wondering if there were any add-ins that might change this or other UI behavior. Things that might be cool: Sticky Tabs that won't go away. Multi-code file collapsible tabs (maybe each tab being a project?). Ha...
Anyone have a good set of sqlplus configuration directives to help transform a given sql query into nicely tab separated output for pulling into a spreadsheet or further processing? ...
Am I the only person who has the need to view multiple directories at once (usually on the same remote server, but sometimes other ones too)? Disconnecting and reconnecting is driving me crazy. Preferably a free tool, but I'm getting to the stage where I'll try anything! Can you have multiple FireFTP tabs in Firefox? Alternatively, I'v...
I have always used tabs for indentation when I do Python programming. But then I came across a question here on SO where someone pointed out that most Python programmers use spaces instead of tabs to minimize editor-to-editor mistakes. How does that make a different? Are there other reasons why you would use spaces instead of tabs for P...
Is there any way of knowing if the user closes a tab in a web browser? Specifically IE7, but also FireFox and others as well. I would like to be able to handle this situation from our asp code if the current tab containing our web site closes. ...
After solving my flicker issue, I wonder if there is a better closable Tabbed Pane, then the one that pops up on top by googling for closabletappedpane? (you recognize it by its processMouseEvents Method) I especially need one, that never flickers :-) Please post your experience, links with your own closable Tabbed Panes here. ...
Is there any way to change the default tab size in a .NET RichTextBox? It currently seems to be set to the equivalent of 8 spaces which is kinda large for my taste. Edit: To clarify, I want to set the global default of "\t" displays as 4 spaces for the control. From what I can understand, the SelectionTabs property requires you to sel...
I have a multi-column text file ( tab delimited ) that I use for localized text in my project. I picked this format since it can easily be edited by anyone in most text editors (and excel too). My makefile processes it into a bunch of defines and binary data for including directly into my app. Do you know if SVN merge only does lin...
Is there a way to stop the path showing in a source code tab in Visual Studio 2008? Currently when developing an ASP.NET site, I get the path from the root plus the filename - truncated when it gets too long. So something like: MyDir/MyPage.aspx for a short path and filename, or: MyDir/MyLong...yPage.aspx for a longer path a...
Trying to make a form wizard with jquery tabs. Is it possible to have each step of the form in a separate view, then load each via jquery tabs' ajax option? When I ajax load just the partial (just the form), it has no way to access the js, css etc. (as there are is no 'header' for the partial file), and it doesn't seem to inherit from t...
How do I make Vi-Vim never use tabs (converting spaces to tabs, bad!), makes the tab key == 4 spaces, and automatically indent code after curly brace blocks like emacs does? Also, how do I save these settings so I never have to input them again. I've seen other questions related to this but it always seems to be a little off from what ...
