Title: Shift+ctrl+end
Post by: bplus on July 01, 2020, 11:32:41 am
Hey, doesn't shift+ctrl+end select all text from cursor down to end of text or is something broken in my memory?

Many of QB64's extended characters are mismapped, unmapped, or double-mapped.  When it comes to ctrl-shift-key keystrokes, I wouldn't count on *any* of them reacting reliably.  (Which is why I ended up writing my own input library completely from scratch...)

OK so my memory isn't making things up ;-))

That is one combination I miss and it's not working in Notepad++ either, so things change :)

Are you talking about in the IDE? If so, it works just fine for me.

I am using QB64 1.4 stable, what are you using? I seem to recall it did work fine in older versions.

Try cntrl - shift - page down. Seemed to work for me

Check that, that only gets you to the end of the screen not to the "end" of the sub

Actually, I just realized that the shift+ctrl+end does work with one "end" key on my keyboard but not the other. I have two "end" keys, one on the key pad associated with the number 1, and a second separate "End" with the group "Home, Page UP, Page DOWN" It does not work with the number pad key but does work with the separate one in the group. (if that makes sense). Key board is Logitech.

Yes @Dimster  I have 2 end keys like that, but good point about keyboards, this may be a hardware difference thing!

Yes shift + pg up or pg dn do work, and that is good alternate choice. When I do a huge selection with mouse I have to jiggle mouse up and down to keep selection moving, usually going up.
