Hi,
Is it possible to make long lines wrap in the code editor?

Writing server events, I often find I have to scroll the page sideways.

Have i missed something??
If not, can I add it as a feature request.
Thanks
steve

It would be nice if we can customize the font color, size, type, background color of the server/client script similar to those open source code editior.

The text editor used for editing the server/client scripts is terrible. Specifically the cursor in whitespace, spaces for tabs, and no auto-indentation.

I agree, a better code editor would be nice.

One think that could be easy implemented in all of the code hooks is, right click contect action: "Open in external Editor".
Then it would be fine that I can define my prefered Code Editor like notepad++ scite etc.

Advantage: I could also define the project folder in my text editor, so that it would be possible also to work with code completion in editors like geany dot org

Better in-built Code Editor

Hello,

I find the best part of PHPMaker is its flexibility. There are several Server and Client events which allow us to write code and customize the output beyond the GUI capabilities of PHPMaker. However, it will be great if PHPMaker team can come up with a much better in-built code editor with Intellisense to Auto-complete the code. It will not only save time but also help the new developers like me to learn all available functions and classes.

Cheers,
Ruturaaj.


Replace code editor

A code editor needs to follow tabs and line endings strictly. Currently you can select anywhere in the editor and keep typing, and it pads everything with spaces.

I'd suggest integrating something open source preferably to allow code folding. This is a major plus, particularly when working on large scripts.

Something with syntax checking and highlighting, auto-complete and code folding preferably.

Atom or Notepad++ would both be worthy replacements, both are free and offer all the requirements!

I'm in.
Built-in syntax highlighting is GREAT.
External code editor is EXTREMELY GREAT.
