split screen editing

[bobonacus]

Hi,
I have just upgraded to the latest version, 7.0.3 and am looking for split screen editing. I saw in the updates post in october that this was a new feature so I guess I'm just being blind as I cant find the option!

By split screen editing I mean having one window open and being able to drag a split in the middle so the top and bottom of the plsql code can be edited at the same time
cheers
Robert

There is no such a thing in PSD to split the same window. You may be confusing it with the tiling that splits all windows.

Split screen editing will be added in 7.1, for which we will have a beta version shortly.

Ahh, I've just re-read the post properly which says it will be in v7.1

thanks for your replies

7.1

DROOL!

Hmmm, in the lower edit window it looks like line numbers are enabled, but how come not all of the lines that are displayed show line numbers?

The lines that are folded couldn't, but I would expect the line "if p_empno is null" would have a line number, even if it has the + indicating hidden lines.

drool squared - split editing and code folding!

There is a new "Line number interval" preference . In the screenshot the interval is 5, and line number 43 is also displayed because it's the current line.

Marco,

we need that beta now, otherwise someone is going to suffer from dehydration

 

[ScottMattes]

Yes, water please!

Marco, is the edit based on some existing component (where did you get it from), or did youse build your own?

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

How to set the split screen in 7.1?

 

[Claus Pedersen]

You just place the cursor over the thick frame just above the code window itself and beneath the code hierarchy buttons (the cursor shifts to two horisontal lines with up and down arrows) and drags the frame downwards.

This will split the screen.

Thanks, that works
