Title: Idea to improve the IDE.
Post by: bartok on July 14, 2021, 09:41:18 am
I propose this idea for the next release of QB64: to implement a vertical line in order to outline the cycles. As an example, I attach an image taken by the text compler "SCITE".

Does the line(s) show up on a printed copy of your code?

I would also like to see the ability to collapse sections of code with + and - signs, like many editors (such as Geany) does.

I don't know, but it would be great. The image I posted is a screenshot of the window of SCITE. I use the IDE, not SCITE, but vertical lines are usefull when there are many nested cycles.

+1 to this idea!
Both the vertical lines and the collapsible + and -  signs would come in very handy.
