- Available only when auto indent is turned off (Options/Code layout).
- Also available from Edit menu and contextual right-click menu.
Known issue: When auto spacing is on, if you try to indent the first line the file, it is immediately repositioned at the start of the line. Only happens to the first line.
- Menu items starting with a tilde ("~") are displayed with COLOR 8 and without hotkeys highlighted. Clicking on them does nothing, but closes the menu.
- Edit menu is now context-aware. Cut, copy and clear are only enabled if there is a selection. Paste is only enabled if _CLIPBOARD$ is not empty.
- Fix updating the display after selecting an item in search history.
- Add the ability to click the search field and unselect/position the cursor (overrides previous double-click to erase behavior).
- Place cursor inside the help window when it's first invoked (allows for quick peek and ESC to close the help window).
- Allow ESC to close the dialog (named "Which?"), used to clarify the help context.
- Allow CTRL+UP or DOWN to scroll the window by one line at a time, without moving the cursor.
- Fix quick link feature (F2) to recognize FUNCTION names ending with single or multiple sigils.
- Fix external procedures being considered local and placed in front of program name.
- Allow the spacebar to work like ENTER when a button has focus.
- Improve textbox behavior: allow selection, delete selection, replace selection when typing.
- Preselect textbox contents if it's preset when dialog is invoked (Save as, Find and Change dialogs)
- Fix: an asterisk sign will be only added to the valid searchable characters in a listbox if the user is explicitly searching for it.
- Move the quick search field to the status area.
- Add Ctrl+F to set focus to quick search field.
- Add Ctrl+F3 shortcut to invoke the Find dialog.
- Add Alt+UP or DOWN to invoke the recent searches dropdown list, if the focus is on the quick search field.
- Show a contextual menu upon right-clicking on the text area. Includes the Edit menu options as well as contextual search and help.
- Add hovering to menus items.
- Adjust case of menu items (CTRL and Ctrl were being used interchangeably without a pattern).
A quick current SUB/FUNCTION check was added to complement the program title with a colon and said SUB/FUNCTION name, exactly like it was done in QB4.5, for quick reference. Doesn't add much of a burden to the overall performance since FUNCTION ide2 already updates the main window title every main LOOP anyway.
